Full list of words from this list:

  1. fundamental frequency
    the lowest tone of a harmonic series
    Accurate control of vocal pitch (fundamental frequency) requires coordination of sensory and motor systems.
  2. discrimination
    unfair treatment of a person or group based on prejudice
    The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of memory for pitch in pitch matching and pitch discrimination ability.
  3. perceptual
    of or relating to the act of perceiving
    Previous research has supported the relationship between perceptual accuracy and vocal pitch matching accuracy.
  4. task
    any piece of work that is undertaken or attempted
    Three experimental tasks were used.
  5. findings
    a collection of tools and other articles used by an artisan to make jewelry or clothing or shoes
    These results support earlier findings of a relationship between pitch discrimination and pitch matching abilities.
  6. participant
    someone who is involved in an activity
    First, a pitch matching task was completed, in which the participants listened to target tones and vocally matched the pitch of the tones.
  7. coordination
    regulation of diverse elements into a harmonious operation
    Accurate control of vocal pitch (fundamental frequency) requires coordination of sensory and motor systems.
  8. interference
    the act of hindering or obstructing or impeding
    The third task was pitch discrimination with memory interference task that was similar to the pitch discrimination task except interference tones were added.
  9. ability
    the quality of having the means or skills to do something
    The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of memory for pitch in pitch matching and pitch discrimination ability.
  10. frequency
    the number of occurrences within a given time period
    Accurate control of vocal pitch (fundamental frequency) requires coordination of sensory and motor systems.
  11. relationship
    a mutual connection between people
    Previous research has supported the relationship between perceptual accuracy and vocal pitch matching accuracy.
  12. matched
    going well together; possessing harmonizing qualities
    First, a pitch matching task was completed, in which the participants listened to target tones and vocally matched the pitch of the tones.
  13. implication
    something that is inferred
    These findings may have implications for abilities related to accurate pitch control.
  14. experimental
    of the nature of or undergoing a trial
    Three experimental tasks were used.
  15. investigate
    conduct an inquiry of
    The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of memory for pitch in pitch matching and pitch discrimination ability.
  16. values
    beliefs of a group in which they have emotional investment
    Results of the pitch matching and pitch discrimination tasks _____________ed a significant correlation between these values.
  17. require
    have need of
    Accurate control of vocal pitch (fundamental frequency) requires coordination of sensory and motor systems.
  18. finding
    something that is discovered
    These results support earlier findings of a relationship between pitch discrimination and pitch matching abilities.
  19. complex
    complicated in structure
    The second task was a pitch discrimination task that required the participants to judge the pitch (same or different) of complex tone pairs.
  20. target
    a reference point to shoot at
    First, a pitch matching task was completed, in which the participants listened to target tones and vocally matched the pitch of the tones.
