    Abstract
    Four cats were chronically implanted with electrodes in the scala tympani of the cochlea. Results support frequency following as a pitch-conveying mechanism, suggesting that electrical stimulation of the terminal auditory nerve fibers on a rate basis produces a sensation comparable to that previously discriminated in an equivalent pure-tone acoustic pattern.
