title: Some remarks on Pastore (1988).
abstract: Pastore [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 84, 2262-2266 (1988)] has written a lengthy response to Kewley-Port, Watson, and Foyle [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 83, 1133-1145 (1988)]. In this reply to Pastore's letter, several of his arguments are addressed, and new data are reported which support the conclusion of the original article. That conclusion is, basically, that the temporal acuity of the auditory system does not appear to be the origin of categorical perception of speech or nonspeech sounds differing in temporal onsets.
