Memory for the pitch of a tone

Observers attempted to detect the presence of a pitch difference between two successive tones. The percentage of correct judgments was equivalent for tones separated by .95, 4.5, and 8.9 sec. There was a general increase in reports of a pitch difference with increased intertone interval, which is interpreted as arising from hypothesized shifts in the neural locus of the first stimulus during the intertone interval.     

Stimulus correlates of visual pattern discrimination by monkeys: Multidimensional analyses

Fourteen monkeys were presented with a series of simultaneous discrimination problems, each problem consisting of two visual metric patterns, and Ss’ performance was analyzed with respect to several physical dimensions of the patterns. Proficiency of discriminative performance was found to be directly and almost exclusively related to the extent to which the two patterns, when translated, had unique parts.
