Abstract
Infants 6 to 8 months of age were exposed to repetitions of a 6-tone sequence or melody, then tested for their detection of six transformations of that sequence, each of which incorporated a frequency change in one of the six positions. In Experiment 1, infants showed evidence of discriminating all changes. Moreover, they performed significantly better on changes that extended the frequency range of the original melody. When the task was made more difficult in Experiment 2, performance deteriorated but frequency changes in all positions were still detectable.
