Investigating Group Synchronization, Flow, and Complexity with Group Drumming Tasks View Sample Rhythm and Letter of Information
Hello,
I’m Cameron Prosic. I am conducting research about how musicians are able to coordinate in groups to play rhythmic music. This experiment is part of my undergraduate thesis at McMaster University’s Dept. of Psychology, Neuroscience, and Behaviour in Hamilton, Ontario. I’m working under the supervision of Dr. Laurel Trainor and Dr. Daniel Cameron of McMaster’s Dept. of Psychology, Neuroscience, and Behaviour.
I’m inviting you to participate in an experiment that will take approximately 90 mins for which you will receive $30 compensation. The study will take place in the LIVELab at McMaster University.
To be eligible to participate in this study you must be a musician comfortable reading Western musical notation, with either at least 10 years of formal training or currently enrolled in a university Music department.
A sample rhythm has been provided below that reflects the level of difficulty of the rhythms in this experiment.
For the full details of the study, please read the attached Letters of Information.
We would like to thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
If you are interested in participating or if you have any questions, please contact:
