Pitch discrimination
is a hearing test that measures your ability to resolve
differences in frequency. In this test, you will hear
three pure tones, with one of them having a higher pitch.
Your job is to select the tone with higher pitch by pointing
and clicking your mouse to its corresponding light. Depending
on your response, the pitch difference between the three
tones may become more or less or totally undetectable.
You have to guess even if you are not sure. You should
keep going until the the program stops. The computer program
will automatically track your response and calculate the
smallest pitch difference that you can detect.
Experimental conditions: 100 msec in
duration and 1,000 Hz as the standard frequency.
Let's first play the calibration stimulus
to set the overall volume of your speaker or headphone
at the maximally comfortable level. The test may last
5 to 10 minutes. Are you ready for the test?
