Subject: Chicks Like Consonant Music From: Massimo Grassi <massimo.grassi@xxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2012 11:12:37 +0100 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>Deaf list members, I missed this article when it first came out a few months ago. But the topic interests many here (musical consonance). So I recommend the reading of it: Cinzia Chiandetti, Giorgio Vallortigara (2011). Chicks Like Consonant Music. Psychological Science 22(10): 1270-1273. The melodies the authors used for the experiment can be heard here: http://pss.sagepub.com/content/22/10/1270/suppl/DC1 Enjoy dissonant music! m -- http://www.psy.unipd.it/~grassi/
