| Hi Jorie, Chambers et al. 2017 review contrastive and attractive context effects and demonstrate striking context effects in pitch perception: Chambers, C., Akram, S., Adam, V., Pelofi, C., Sahani, M., Shamma, S., and Pressnitzer, D. (2017). Prior context in audition informs binding and shapes simple features. Nature Communications, 8:15027. You could also take a look at Chambers, C. and Pressnitzer, D. (2014). Perceptual hysteresis in the judgment of auditory pitch shift. Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 76(5):1271–1279. Raviv, O., Ahissar, M., and Loewenstein, Y. (2012). How recent history affects perception: the normative approach and its heuristic approximation. PLoS Comput Biol, 8(10):e1002731. But there also exist attractive and contrastive context effects in timbre perception, see Siedenburg, K. (2018). Timbral Shepard-illusion reveals perceptual ambiguity and context sensitivity of brightness perception. Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 143(2):EL93–EL98. Siedenburg, K., Barg, F. M., and Schepker, H. (2021). Adaptive auditory brightness perception. Scientific Reports, 11(1):1–11. Stilp, C. E., Alexander, J. M., Kiefte, M., and Kluender, K. R. (2010). Auditory color constancy: Calibration to reliable spectral properties across nonspeech context and targets. Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 72(2):470–480. Best wishes, Kai
