This book reviews recent research on the ability of human listeners
to discern changes in the shape of complex acoustic spectra-what is
known as auditory profile analysis. It also discusses in a
systematic way issues surrounding the discrimination of a change in
acoustic intensity and the physiological mechanisms responsible for
these discrimination processes. The author concludes with two new
theories that provide a way of understanding more complex auditory
skills, such as those involved in listening to music and speech.
This book will be of interest to psychoacousticians,
psychophysicists, physiological psychologists, and experimental
psychologists.
