“…For this reason, the majority of research into congenital amusia has investigated pitch-related processing, with findings indicating elevated thresholds in pitch change detection, pitch direction discrimination, and poor memory for pitch information (Foxton, Dean, Gee, Peretz, & Griffiths, 2004;Gosselin, Jolicoeur, & Peretz, 2009;Hyde & Peretz, 2004;Peretz et al, 2002;Tillmann, Schulze, & Foxton, 2009;Williamson, McDonald, Deutsch, Griffiths, & Stewart, 2010).
