The paper shows that timbral manipulations can reshape harmonic consonance preferences and influence the evolution of musical scales through large-scale behavioral experiments and computational modeling.

This study uses online iterated singing experiments to show that cognitive and motor constraints shape melodic structure through oral transmission.

REPP enables accurate online sensorimotor synchronization experiments using standard laptop hardware with high temporal accuracy and reliability.

The paper investigates how humans encode and retain sequence statistics in long-term memory through behavioral experiments and a probabilistic model, showing implicit memory for auditory patterns over weeks.
