While the ability to coordinate movements temporally with rhythmic auditory stimuli is universal, previous investigators showed that accurate rhythm reproduction depends on temporal complexity. To date, the effect of multiple pitches on the timing of rhythmic movements has been assumed. Exploring a possible entrainment effect of auditory stimuli on sequential movement might further elucidate the role of temporal complexity and its interaction with multiple pitch engagement. Thus, we investigated the sustained effect of auditory entrainment and the interaction between temporal complexity and pitch on predefined sequential tapping with tapping sequences predefined before a synchronization-timekeeping task. Temporal complexity was manipulated by increasing the number of non-integer ratios in temporal rhythm. The rhythm sequences were presented with either multiple pitches or a single pitch. We found a reduction in mean asynchronies and ratio error in three rhythms with non-integer ratios, while inter-response interval error was reduced in the integer rhythm and the rhythm with one repetitive integer ratio and one non-integer ratio. Ratio error remanence was less in rhythms with two non-integer ratios. We found no significant difference between the two pitch types. There was a sustained entrainment effect of sequential tapping that varied with differing temporal complexity, and pitch information was not essential for auditory entrainment. These findings provide support for possible interventions aimed at motor learning.
虽然协调运动与节奏听觉刺激的能力是普遍存在的，但之前的研究人员表明，准确的节奏再现取决于时间的复杂性。迄今为止，人们一直认为多个音高会对节奏运动的时间产生影响。探索听觉刺激对连续运动的可能的同步效应可能进一步阐明时间复杂性及其与多音高参与的相互作用。因此，我们研究了听觉同步的持续效应以及时间复杂性和音高之间的相互作用对预定义的顺序敲击的影响，即在同步计时任务之前预定义的敲击序列。通过增加时间节奏中非整数比的数量来操纵时间复杂性。用多个音高或单个音高呈现节奏序列。我们发现，在具有非整数比的三个节奏中，平均异步和比误差减小，而整数节奏和具有一个重复整数比和一个非整数比的节奏中的响应间间隔误差减小。具有两个非整数比的节奏中比率误差的残余量较小。我们在两种音高类型之间没有发现显著差异。顺序敲击存在持续的同步效应，这种效应随时间复杂度的不同而变化，而音高信息对于听觉同步不是必需的。这些发现为针对运动学习的可能干预提供了支持。
