The discrimination of tonal contrasts by monolingual and bilingual adults
In previous TAL [1], we have demonstrated non-tone-learning monolingual and bilingual infants' tone perception in the first year of life. This talk presents a follow-up study on the tone discrimination patterns in the adulthood, specifically in Chinese (tone-language), Dutch (non-tone-language), and Dutch simultaneous bilingual adults (non-tone-languages). Interestingly, adults from all languag...
متن کاملTemporal order discrimination of tonal sequences by younger and older adults: the role of duration and rate.
The effect of tone duration and presentation rate on the discrimination of the temporal order of the middle two tones of a four-tone sequence was investigated in young normal-hearing (YNH) and older hearing-impaired (OHI) listeners. The frequencies and presentation level of the tone sequences were selected to minimize the effect of hearing loss on the performance of the OHI listeners. Tone dura...
متن کاملThe Internal Representation of Pitch Sequences in Tonal Music
A model for the internal representation of pitch sequences in tonal music is advanced. This model assumes that pitch sequences are retained as hierarchical networks. At each level of the hierarchy, elements are organized as structural units in accordance with laws of figural goodness, such as proximity and good continuation. Further, elements that are present at each hierarchical level are elab...
متن کاملThe processing of structured and unstructured tonal sequences.
The recall of hierarchically organized tonal sequences was investigated in two experiments. An adaptation of the technique of melodic dictation was employed, in which musically trained listeners notated each sequence after it was presented. Strong effects of sequence structure were obtained. Sequences whose tonal structure could be parsimoniously encoded in hierarchical fashion were recalled wi...
متن کاملDistinctiveness and serial position effects in tonal sequences.
The proportion-of-the-total-duration rule (Kidd & Watson, 1992) states that the detectability of a change in a component of a tonal sequence can be predicted by the proportional duration of the changed component relative to the length of the sequence as a whole. A similar viewpoint relies on temporal distinctiveness to account for primacy, recency, and other serial position effects in memory (M...
