Roughness is limited by frequency selectivity at low and temporal resolution at high frequencies

Evidence

Thus, two characteristics of the ear seem to influence the sensation of roughness: at low centre frequencies, it is frequency selectivity; at high centre frequencies, it is the limited temporal resolution. — Professor Dr.-Ing. Hugo Fastl, Professor Dr.-Ing. Eberhard, Psychoacoustics- Facts and Models, 1444
