What makes a rhythm complex? The influence of musical training and accent type on beat perception
Fig 6
Interactions between beats missing and type and between beats missing and musical training in Experiment 2.
As in Fig 4, for the chart on the right, depicting the interaction between musical training and beats missing, participants were divided into two groups for ease of visualization. Estimates are given for participants with less than 2 years of musical training (musical novices) and participants with more than 2 years of musical training (musical experts). Note that in the statistical analysis, musical training was included as a continuous variable and participants were not divided into groups. Note that for both charts, in the normalized scale, negative numbers indicate “easier to tap to” and positive numbers indicate “more difficult to tap to”. Error bars indicate 2 standard errors.
