Two‐factor theory of auditory organization

摘要: Evidence from several laboratories suggests a generalization that organizes facts about auditory organization. It goes as follows: There are two “forces” of primary perceptual organization, sequential one acoustic components sequentially into streams, and simultaneous fuses pitch timbre structures. Each these forces draws its basic information separate physiological mechanism. The force directly upon the place coding basilar membrane (BM). is based timing carried on neural outputs BM. Since compete, factors influence each can affect other, but only indirectly. A parallel dichotomy proposed for pitch: height controlled by BM while chroma information. Hence should appear to chromatic relations fusion. Musical schemata override the...
