Compensatory and Pursuit Tracking of Pitch
J. Donald Harris, Andrew G. Pikler, Jerome E. Murphy · The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America · 1963
The present experiment explores, in a preliminary way, compensatory and pursuit frequency tracking of 250 cps, and of the musical interval middle C-middle E; delineates the individual differences among subjects; explores the effect of possession of absolute pitch; explores the effect of change in speed in the program over a range from 1.25 through 5 cps/sec; and indicates its possible usefulness in certain spheres such as in music psychology, in musical guidance programs, and in human engineering.
