متن کاملAbsolute Pitch and L Tone Perception by Non-mu Absolute Pitch Non-tonal
In this paper we investigate whether musically trained nontonal language speakers perceive lexical tone better than their non-musician counterparts. Three groups of English language speakers, non-musicians, musicians, and musicians with absolute pitch (n=24, N=72), were tested for same/different discrimination of Central Thai tone pairs. These were presented in three separate conditions: as spe...
