Performance of Perceived Beat in Relation to Age and Music Training.
Duke, Robert A.; And Others
Journal of Research in Music Education, v39 n1 p35-45 Spr 1991
Presents results of study of perception of beat across range of stimulus speeds. Finds that college music majors and graduate students perceived faster rates of presentation as subdivisions of slower beat tempi. Concludes that nonmusic subjects perceived stimulus tones as beats regardless of rate of presentation. Urges further research using actual music examples as stimuli. (DK)
