Fig. 4: Paradigm and visual representations.
From: Note-by-note predictability modulates rhythm learning and its neural components
a Experimental paradigm: rhythms were presented in sequences of 3 trials. Listening Trials required participants to listen to and watch the visual representation. Synchronization Trials required to synchronize pressing a button to the auditory rhythm with the help of the visual presentation. Reproduction Trials required participants to reproduce the rhythm without sound, helped only by the representation. This sequence was repeated 10 times for each rhythm. b Types of visual representation and their correspondence to Western musical notations. Categorical: different geometric figures representing the different intervals. Graphical: distance represents the intervals between notes. No Information: no correspondence with auditory rhythm.
