The last two years of research in hearing have produced data in many areas and psychology is but one of these. If this review were confined to this one area alone there would be much to cover but some of the significant ad vances would be omitted j so the reviewer must pick and choose. The selection of publications for review here is based primarily on whether anything new has been added to our understanding of the way in which the ear works or whether any newly revealed or well established characteristic of auditory phenomena is more accurately described. Even with this selection there is more than can be covered carefully: so certain present day trends in research reporting are followed.Psychological phenomena in hearing used to be of interest for their own sake and, of course, still are, but the reporting of them has taken on a differ ent emphasis. Many reports are appearing in which the traditional char acteristics of hearing are investigated in the abnormal ear, and invariably these are carried out in an attempt to help explain hearing in physiological terms.This emphasis has had a counterpart in that research into the morphology of the more peripheral structures of the ear is receiving new attention, and more information is being accumulated that shows the influence of physiolog ical processes on the traditional psychological aspects of hearing. It would be impossible to ignore these trends: so the anatomy and physiology of the ear cannot be passed by. This chapter covers, then, (a) anatomy, (b) mechan ical properties of the ear, and (c) physiology, followed by (d) intensity discrimination and loudness, (e) fatigue, (f) frequency discrimination and pitch, (g) other subjective attributes, and (h) hearing in communications. ANATOMYThe reason for precise controls in procedure and statistics in psychological research is that there is the ever present characteristic of individual differ ences. How much of this is inherent in the morphologic organization and how much is attributable to organic disturbances is a perennial question,
