A three-interval, forced-choice procedure that obtained complete psychometric functions was used to study frequency discrimination for 13-item continua of impulse-generated, narrow-band, buzz-like, steady-state sounds. For all subjects and durations, discrimination relative to the highest center frequency (1060 Hz) stimuli was better than discrimination relative to the lowest center frequency (940 Hz). This result is not in consonance with traditional reports of pure tone frequency discrimination and is not readily explained. However, additional experiments with similar stimuli replicated these findings.
采用一种获得完整心理测量函数的三区间、强制选择程序，来研究脉冲产生的、窄带、嗡嗡样稳态声音的13项连续体的频率辨别。对于所有受试者和时长，相对于最高中心频率（1060赫兹）刺激的辨别优于相对于最低中心频率（940赫兹）刺激的辨别。这一结果与传统的纯音频率辨别报告不一致，且难以解释。然而，使用类似刺激的额外实验重复了这些发现。
