Materials

This zipped archive contains a guide to running the experiment described in this manuscript and all of the digital materials to do so. This includes imitation.py which is a python script to conduct the imitation experiments. This script will prompt the user for some input including whether it should run in singing or whistling mode, and MBEA.py which runs a digital implementation of the montreal battery for evaluating amusia. Two subfolders contain all of the auditory stimuli required by both experiments and these folders should be kept in the same directory as the experiment script. Imitation stimuli are labelled according to a western chromatic scale
