Large transpositions impair pitch pattern detection more than small ones

Evidence

The two-way ANOVA assessing the effect of within-pattern and transposition intervals showed a significant main effect of within-pattern intervals (F (1,49) = 37.45, p < 0.001, partial η2 = 0.433) and transposition size (F (1,49) = 12.16, p = 0.001, partial η2 = 0.199) but their interaction was not significant (F (1,49) = 1.45, p = 0.235, partial η2 = 0.029). A posthoc multiple comparison analysis showed that there was a tendency for large transpositions to impair performance more than small transpositions. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 5320
