Discrimination of Modulated Music Tempo by String Students.
Wang, Cecilia Chu; Salzberg, Rita S.
Journal of Research in Music Education, v32 n2 p123-31 Sum 1984

However, the music variables explained less than one-third of the total variance. Tempo perception is an extremely complex phenomenon. (Author/RM)
