Speech-to-Speech Synchronization protocol to classify human participants as high or low auditory-motor synchronizers.

The ability to synchronize a motor action to a rhythmic auditory stimulus is often considered an innate human skill. However, some individuals lack the ability to synchronize speech to a perceived syllabic rate. Here, we describe a simple and fast protocol to classify a single native English speaker as being or not being a speech synchronizer. This protocol consists of four parts: the pretest instructions and volume adjustment, the training procedure, the execution of the main task, and data analysis. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Assaneo et al. (2019a).
