Volley theory attempts to account for the maximum theoretical limit for the neuronal firing of action potentials and the small time scales over which sound discrimination must occur. In this theory, the organ of corti in the cochlea that transduces the sound into action potentials must combine multiple stimuli along the cochlear nerve within a volley in order to encode high frequency auditory stimuli.In Psychology and Life, Gerrig and Zimbardo define volley theory as "an extension of frequency theory, which proposes that when peaks in a sound wave come too frequently for a single neuron to fire at each peak, several neurons fire as a group at the frequency of the stimulus tone."
