Description

The effect of practice on the ability of Ss to discriminate differences in pitch between two sounds (difference thresholds or DLs) was investigated using four different experimental groups. These four groups differed in regard to the frequency at which training was given (800 or 3,000 cps), and whether or not knowledge of results was given. All discriminations were made against a white noise background. Training was given to all experimental Ss for four successive days with a fifth day devoted to both practice and a transfer test. The daily procedure consisted of listening to three tapes, each requiring 100 discriminations. A modified descending staircase procedure (method of limits) was utilized in obtaining the difference threshold. The main findings were: (1) a negatively accelerated, declining curve of DLs for all four experimental groups with the largest drop taking place within the first day or two for most Ss, (2) discrimination was slightly better with knowledge of results than without, but not significantly so, and (3) the surprising fact that a net negative transfer of training effect was revealed when the transfer was attempted between the two different points on the frequency spectrum utilized here. Implications for auditory training procedures are discussed.
