Popis: | The influence of training on melodic interval discrimination was examined using 48 Ss. Experimental and control groups were matched on the basis of age, general intelligence and musical intelligence. A test of melodic interval discrimination was administered to all Ss followed by a period of training for the experimental Ss. A second test of melodic interval discrimination was then administered to all Ss. It was found that training improved performance on the second test irrespective of prior formal music experience and that the greatest gains in performance were obtained by Ss with low musical intelligence. Melodic interval discrimination was found to be related to both pitch discrimination and musical intelligence. |
