Led jointly by postdoc Sarah Izen and PhD student Riesa Cassano-Coleman (rcassanocoleman.bsky.social). Come by Riesa's #Psychonomics poster (Saturday 7:45-9:15, #7059), which mainly discusses Expt 3.

You can hear our wacky scrambled music here: osf.io/mej7a/

This is a beast of a study! E.g., Experiment 3 alone uncovers new fundamentals of musical event segmentation (a relatively understudied topic). One takeaway here: musicians are more likely than non-musicians to perceive long-timescale (multi-phrase) events.

In general, we show that non-musicians use context quite effectively, which is surprising b/c this is relatively high-level tonal context (not driven by dynamics/timbre/tempo/pitch proximity). But musicians do perform better overall across tasks (including identifying the degree of scrambling).

My entire lab will be there! 😀

Please add me--thanks!
