Subject: Pitch perception shift caused by carbamazepine From: chen-gia tsai <tsai.cc(at)LYCOS.COM> Date: Mon, 1 Nov 2004 01:49:45 -0500Dear list, It has been reported that pitch perception shift can be caused by carbamazepine. I wonder if this phenomenon favors "place" models or "temporal" models of pitch. Another question is: is this relevant to pitch perception shift during yawning? Thank you very much.
