The distributed roughness theory of the origins of spectral periodicity in stimulus frequency otoacoustic emissions (SFOAEs) predicts that the spectral period will be altered by suppression of the traveling wave (TW) [Zweig and Shera, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 98, 2018-2047 (1995)]. In order to investigate this effect in more detail, simulations of the variation of the spectral period under conditions of self-suppression and two-tone suppression are obtained from nonlinear cochlear models based on this theory. The results show that during self-suppression the spectral period is increased, while during high-side two-tone suppression, the period is reduced, indicating that the detailed pattern of disruption of the cochlear amplifier must be examined if the nonlinear behavior of SFOAEs is to be understood. The model results suggest that the SFOAE spectral period may be sensitive to changes in the state of the cochlear amplifier. A companion paper [Lineton and Lutman, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 114, 871-882 (2003)] presents experimental data which are compared with the results of the above models with a view to testing the underlying theory of Zweig and Shera.
