Periodicity, Pulse Interval and Pitch

Pages 507-512 | Published online: 07 Jul 2009
 

Abstract

In an analysis of the relation between perceived pitch and auditory nerve impulse pattern, the distinction between periodicity and pulse interval is emphasized. Periodicity has previously been shown not to be uniquely related to pitch, and it is now demonstrated that pulse interval is also not necessarily a pitch correlate.

Si l'on analyse les rapports entre la tonie et le mode de décharge du nerf auditif, on est forcé de reconnaître l'importance des intervalles de décharge. Cependant, la périodicité n'étant pas, comme on le sait, uniquement en rapport avec la tonie, l'intervalle des décharges ne nous paraît pas, lui non plus, nécessaire pour la tonie.
