The neural basis of low pitch was investigated in the present study by recording a brainstem
potential from the scalp of human subjects during presentation of complex tones which …

The frequency following response (FFR), a scalp-recorded measure of phase-locked
brainstem activity, is often assumed to reflect the pitch of sounds as perceived by humans. In …

Neuroimaging studies have provided important information regarding how and where pitch
is coded and processed in the human brain. Recordings of the frequency-following …

1. The neural correlates of low pitches produced by complex tones were studied by
analyzing temporal discharge patterns of auditory nerve fibers in Dial-anesthetized cats. In …

Previous studies of the frequency-following response (FFR) in man suggest that it has
multiple sources. Identification of these sources has been complicated by the use of tone …

Frequency-following responses, with latencies circa 6 msec, were recorded from five normal-
hearing human subjects to brief 500 c/sec tone bursts presented monaurally. The frequency …

Within the cochlea, broadband sounds like speech and music are filtered into a series of
narrowband signals, each with a relatively slowly varying envelope (ENV) imposed on a …

Auditory nerve single-unit population studies have demonstrated that phase-locking plays a
dominant role in the neural encoding of the spectrum of speech sounds. Since the scalp …

Psychoacoustic studies have shown that complex tones containing resolved harmonics
evoke stronger pitches than complex tones with only unresolved harmonics. Also …

Responses from cochlea and cochlear nucleus were recorded in cats through gross
electrodes, using stimulus conditions under which masking effects were demonstrated with …
