The Effect of Melodic Context on Students' Aural Perception of Rhythm.
Boisen, Robert
Journal of Research in Music Education, v29 n3 p165-72 Fall 1981
To determine whether the accuracy of students' aural perception of rhythmic completeness and incompleteness is influenced by melodic context, 2,207 secondary school students were administered a 42-item data-collection instrument based on 14 rhythmic units. According to the results, accuracy is influenced by melodic context. (Author/SJL)
