“…Of the 26 studies employing minor keys, 22 did not specify the minor type, three used natural minor contexts, one used harmonic minor contexts, and none used melodic minor contexts. These 26 minor key studies focused on an array of themes, including key finding (Brown, 1988;Cohen, 1991;Corso, 1957;Frankland & Cohen, 1996;Schmuckler & Tomovski, 2005;Toiviainen & Krumhansl, 2003;Yoshino & Abe, 2004), the representation of tonality across the life span (Delzell, Rohwer, & Ballard, 1999;Feierabend, Saunders, Holahan, & Getnick, 1998;Guilbault, 2004), the neural instantiation of tonality (Janata, et al, 2002;Mizuno & Sugishita, 2007;Otsuka, Kuriki, Murata, & Hasegawa, 2008), the relationship between emotion and tonality (Kellaris & Kent, 1993;Mizuno & Sugishita, 2007), the effect of tonality on memory (Feierabend et al, 1998;Mead & Ball, 2007), and tonal priming (Hutchins & Palmer, 2008;Otsuka et al, 2008). Finally, of the four studies that did use a particular minor type context, none explicitly distinguished between representations of the minor key in general and the representation of the particular minor type that was employed.…”
