Re: Effect of duration on pitch perception

[Reinhart Frosch <reinifrosch@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Dr. Drennan,

In the book "Signals, Sound, and Sensation"
by William M. Hartmann (Springer, 1998),
there is about one page on pitch difference
limen experiments: Chapter 13, second half
of the section "Pitch of Short Tones"
(pages 319--320 in my copy). Several references
to articles in journals are given there.

Reinhart Frosch.
