Template v. temporal theories:
Evidence
¥Existence region of virtual pitch: Occurs even when all harmonics are unresolved (albeit weaker), but also when all are resolved.
¥Dominance region: Resolved harmonics are more important in determining pitch
Studies that show that resolved harmonics produce stronger iompressions of pitch than unresolved harmonics support template theories. But because virtual pitch does occur when all harmonics are unresolved, it is clear that temporal information is also being used.
