Fitness Beats Truth in the Evolution of Perception

Acta Biotheoretica, 2020
Does natural selection favor veridical percepts-those that accurately (if not exhaustively) depict objective reality? Perceptual and cognitive scientists standardly claim that it does. Here we formalize this claim using the tools of evolutionary game theory and Bayesian decision theory.

Feeling the Beat: Movement Influences Infant Rhythm Perception

Science, 2005
We hear the melody in music, but we feel the beat. We demonstrate that the perception of musical rhythm is a multisensory experience in infancy. In particular, movement of the body, by bouncing on every second versus every third beat of an ambiguous auditory rhythm pattern, influences whether that auditory rhythm pattern is encoded in duple form (a ...

Finding the beat: An ethnographic approach to beat perception

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2018
People commonly use words such as “find,” “hold,” “keep,” and “drop” to describe actions related to the musical beat. While such language implies that musical beats exist in an empirically observable, externalized way, musical beats exist only in our perception.

Evidence of beat perception via purely tactile stimulation

Brain Research, 2008
Humans can easily tap in synchrony with an auditory beat but not with an equivalent visual rhythmic sequence, suggesting that the sensation of meter (i.e. of an underlying regular pulse) may be inherently auditory. We assessed whether the perception of meter could also be felt with tactile sensory inputs. We found that, when participants were presented

Marching to Your Own Beat: Self-entrainment as a Missing Link Between Rhythm Perception and Synchronization

Music Perception: An Interdisciplinary Journal
In the study of auditory rhythm perception, a key question is the relationship between the perception of a beat and moving to the beat. The most obvious way to observe an individual’s perceived beat is to ask them to move along with it (e.g., tap a ...

Deficits in beat perception and dyslexia: evidence from French

NeuroReport, 2004
Recent research has suggested a novel link between deficits in the perception of cues relevant to speech rhythm (i.e., deficits in amplitude envelope rise time processing, or beat perception) and the phonological deficits seen in most dyslexic children.

Perception of Binaural Beats in Organic and Nonorganic Patients

Archives of Neurology And Psychiatry, 1958
The diagnosis of cortical brain impairment by means of the visual negative after-image was conducted in earlier experiments, with gratifying results. 3 The Archimedes spiral was used in these investigations to produce the perceptual after-image. The over-all plan was, however, to select or develop a battery of tests which would yield high validity and ...

The Impact of Equine Therapy and an Audio-Visual Approach Emphasizing Rhythm and Beat Perception in Children with Developmental Coordination Disorder

Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, 2019
Objectives: This study aims to investigate the impact of a therapeutic horse riding (HR) intervention and an audiovisual (AV) intervention comprising exposure to equine rhythm and motion on developmental parameters of children with Developmental ...

Neural correlates of beat perception in vibro-tactile modalities

Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2018
Musical rhythms elicits a perception of a beat (or pulse) which in turn elicit spontaneous motor synchronization (Repp & Su, 2013). Electroencephalography (EEG) research has shown that endogenous neural oscillations dynamically entrain to beat ...

Measuring individual differences in musical beat alignment perception

Personality and Individual Differences, 2014
Objective tests of musical abilities have been used in education and performance assessment, and as criterion-based measures in music cognition research. However, attempts to rigorously measure individual differences in musical abilities are few and recent (Law & Zentner, 2013; Mullensiefen et al., 2012).
