The aim of the present study is to investigate functional laterality for pitch identification in subjects with absolute pitch (AP) and without absolute pitch (NAP). Forty-four musicians were divided into two groups (AP and NAP) on the basis of their performance in a preliminary standard AP-test. They were subsequently presented with an AP-test designed

Absolute Pitch May Not Be So Absolute
Psychological Science, 2013Most people cannot name the musical note that corresponds to a particular pitch without being provided a reference note, but those people with absolute pitch (AP) can do this accurately. Early experience during a developmental period is often thought to convey identity and stability of the note categories in people with AP, but the plasticity of these ...

Absolute pitch (AP) is the ability to identify a tone's pitch or to produce a tone at a particular pitch without the use of an external reference pitch. AP exists in varying degrees among people generally described as AP possessors. AP possessors vary not only in the accuracy with which they can identify pitches but also in their ability to produce ...

The absolute pitch ability (AP) of three female and two male subjects has been investigated over many years. The pitch estimates of A4 (440 Hz) of four of the subjects varied by up to a semitone during the longitudinal study. The fifth subject showed no noticeable variation in his estimates of A4.

Absolute and relative pitch identification by absolute pitch possessors
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1988The identification of absolute and relative pitch was investigated with absolute pitch (AP) possessors and nonpossessors as subjects. In an AP experiment, isolated tones of different pitches (including microtonal pitches) were presented as stimuli in random order.

The author, who possesses absolute pitch since the time of his earliest musical experiences at the age of five years, has spent much time in studying this musical phenomenon. Amused by the fact that the most extensive work on “absolute pitch” was conducted by psychologists who did not possess this faculty and that it was done on large groups of ...

Is Absolute Pitch Learnable? Implicit and Explicit Absolute Pitch
Music Perception: An Interdisciplinary JournalAbsolute pitch (AP) is the ability to identify and name an isolated tone by ear. The review begins with a brief overview of AP and the seeming bizarreness of its rarity. I then consider some reasons why AP learning may be inherently more difficult than typically assumed.

Absolute pitch: Music and beyond
Epilepsy & Behavior, 2005"Perfect pitch," known in the scientific literature as "absolute pitch" (AP), is a rare phenomenon that has fascinated musicians and scientists alike for over a century. There has been a great deal of conflict in the literature between advocates of the two main theories on the etiology of AP: some believe that AP is learned early in life through ...
