Abstract

Time of recognition by human subjects of masked Arabic numerals decreased and the probability of correct responses increased under conditions of listening of tape-recordings of classic or rock music. Changes in recognition were most pronounced under the definite music power. The efficiency of recognition decreased during repeated listening of the same music fragments with unchanged power. The obtained data are considered as a manifestation of the dominant regularities.
