Hmm. kind of rushed through it.

I could hear the difference between all of the pitches, but I had trouble distinguishing which one was higher and which one was lower.

I did pretty good on the tone deafness one, but it's stupid that you can't replay any of the music.

pitch test: 2.67

tonedeaf test: 63.9%

[tereg]

69.4% on tonedeaf test

[Creepy-bg]

88.9% Correct on the tone deaf test

better than I thought that I would do once I realized that it was as much of a memory test as a tone discimination test, but it was more a matter of the second sounding "wrong" compared to the "right" of the first (or the other way around) than comparing actual notes in my head (at least consiously)

[squark]

72.2 % for the tonedeaf one.

77.8%

I think the tonedeaf test has less to do with tone and more to do with memory, lol. I can guarantee that if I heard both side by side I would get it 100%.

Ahhhh, I should try it again thinking about it that way. I spent so much time fixating on the idea of matching rather than hearing the tones of the music.

Haha, a much better strategy indeed! 91.7%

Why do you ignore my PMs? Wait, you're probably not even going to read this, you post, then dont even bother to read responses to what you've written.

Excuse me? Are you talking to the right person, because I don't have a PM from you in my inbox.

Thats funny. I sent you two, thought admitedly rather immature, PMs. But whatever lol.

[Wynch]

I'm really quite confused. I don't know when you posted in response to me that I didn't respond. Additionally, I don't have a single PM from you. Are you sure that you sent me PMs? Are they in your Sent box?

[Ave]

No they are not. And this isnt the first time this happens either, that I sent someone a messgae and they didnt get it. Weird.

[Wynch]

Ok, I don't really have an explanation for it. FYI, If you feel the need to send me a PM, rest assured that I'll respond to it.

[The Exception]

Pitch test: 3.9, 28th% tile
Tone-Deaf test: 63.9%, low average. I felt I was just random guessing my way through it. It all pretty much sounded the same to me.

Is pitch discrimination correlated with Si?

[The Exception]

Musical-visual intelligence test: Skilled at visual learning? Measure your musical-visual intelligence online!

Score: 70%, very good

Rhythm test: Rhythm test: Measure your rhythm comparison abilities

Score: 56% (normal is 60%, possible deficit is under 55%). I suck.


I think musical-visual test is more abstract, it utilizes symbols. I'm curious what cognitive function you think it correlates best to. ? ?

The rhythm test, I think correlates to ?

[1981slater]

I took the test and apparently my musical abilities suck I'm just a guitar hero user and a wash singer

[discojoe]

Wow, I've done terribly at all of these except the visual one, which I scored 100% on.

It was weird. I only had to listen to each one once or twice, and I rapidly answered them all in around 20 seconds each. I guess I need visual abstractions to help me understand music and sounds, because I scored horribly at all the other tests.

Lol, look how high my subscores are. I just noticed them.

[Words]

I always thought I had a good ear for music, because when someone is out of key at karaoke it hurts my ears more than anyone else.

weird, I sucked on basically all tests except that one as well, came out to 96% overall.

edit: don't know how it affected things, but I kept my eyes closed when the music was playing, and then just picked the image that 'felt' the best.

For me it wasn't intuitive. I actually critically analyzed what I heard and matched it to the best pattern.

My guess is that we both have a poor sense of rhythm and need visual cues to allow our natural strengths to help us fully cognize what we are hearing.

For myself, music, though something I can hear and comprehend, is meaningless; it doesn't have any kind of symbolic significance to me at all, but is rather just... sounds. The visual aids allowed me to turn the music from a pointless sound pattern into something I am good at: critical analysis. It makes me go Aha! and finally "get" the music.

For you, it's probably something similar, except instead of logical comprehension, the ocular shapes allowed you to imbue the music with intuitive meaning, and somehow--through means I am not able to fully understand--you were able to match the music with the appropriate pattern.

[strrrng]

yeah, I definitely think sound frequencies and visual forms are inherently connected... similar to dionysus and apollo working in harmony. but that is interesting, because you seem to separate the experience from the abstraction without losing sight of their connection, whereas I assume the abstraction in the experience. it amounts to the same mental process, more or less. also, I think it makes sense in terms of function placement.

[Wynch]

So last week I was really sick, I decided to try the pitch test again now that my ears are clearing up and I did substantially better (and found it a LOT easier) with 1.05

[Aleksei]

Didn't finish (the monotone beeping was annoying), but I can tell a wee bit under 3 hz apart.

Got 76% in the tonedeaf test though. Could have probably gotten higher if my ADD didn't get in the way.
