Pitch perception was studied with respect to nonsimultaneous successive harmonics of fundamentals in quiet and noise. Stimuli consisted of three nonoverlapping sine waves each of 40-msec duration. Pitch perception, examined by discrimination and matching, was found to correspond to spectral frequency in quiet and fundamental frequency in noise. The results suggest a pitch processor that integrates over time (synthetic mode) in noise and analyzes spectral components (analytic mode) in quiet. The findings are discussed with respect to current theories of pitch perception and auditory integrative functions. The findings are thought to be particularly relevant to analytic and synthetic modes of pitch perception.
针对基音的非同时相继谐波，在安静环境和噪声环境下对音高感知进行了研究。刺激由三个持续时间均为40毫秒的非重叠正弦波组成。通过辨别和匹配来检测音高感知，结果发现，在安静环境中它与频谱频率相对应，在噪声环境中则与基频相对应。结果表明，存在一种音高处理器，它在噪声环境中随时间进行整合（合成模式），在安静环境中则分析频谱成分（分析模式）。结合当前的音高感知理论和听觉整合功能对这些发现进行了讨论。这些发现被认为与音高感知的分析和合成模式特别相关。
