Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) This study investigated the processing of a target chord following a prime chord, by employing an in-tune/out-of-tune decision task with various prime-target conditions including a control condition. Responses to in-tune targets were faster and more accurate when the prime and target chords were the same or harmonically related, whereas responses were slower and less accurate if the relatedness decreased. The disruptive effect was largest in the most unrelated condition. These effects were completely eliminated in a simple reaction task, indicating that the facilitation/disruption analysis was not contaminated by artifacts arising from possible differences in warning signal properties between the control prime and the chord primes. These effects are interpreted within a framework involving two components of processing, which deal with the "goodness of a continuation", and "pleasantness of a chord", respectively.
