Claims

  1. Among 160 listeners, music experts moved their heads more to swing and funk clips with participatory discrepancies downscaled by 60% than to fully quantized clips; the effect was small to moderate and limited to experts, offering partial support for PD theory.
    "The experts moved more when listening to stimuli with PDs that were downscaled by 60% compared to completely quantized stimuli. This finding offers partial support for PD theory: PDs of a certain magnitude do augment entrainment in listeners. But the effect was found to be small to moderately sized, and it affected music expert listeners only."
