Responses of single auditory-nerve fibers to combinations of low-frequency (suppressor) and characteristic frequency (CF) tones were recorded. The shapes of period histograms were observed as the level of the suppressor was raised. ⋯ Further increase in level causes first one, then the other of these peaks to disappear and the histogram takes on the shape of the histogram to the suppressor alone. A similar progression of histogram shape follows a decrease in CF tone level for fixed suppressor level.
