The Küssner effect refers to a phenomenon observed in the context of auditory perception and the function of the cochlea, specifically related to frequency selectivity and temporal coding of sound. It describes how certain auditory stimuli can lead to a shift in the frequency response of the cochlea, affecting how sounds are perceived at different frequencies. In more technical terms, the Küssner effect highlights the interaction between different frequency components within a sound wave and how these interactions may influence the overall perception of that sound.
