When we speak and sing we not only produce sounds, but also hear the sounds we produce. The importance of monitoring our own sounds is dramatized by the speech of deaf persons, or the difficulty experienced when singing the national anthem in a large, reverberating hall. However, puzzling evidence from past research would suggest that perceptual feedback plays a limited role in the execution of actions. Dr. Peter Q. Pfordresher will further explore this puzzle with support from the National Science Foundation. The key question of his research is to what extent does fluency in action rely on perceiving the results of one's actions? The funded research focuses on the sounds people hear while they play melodies on the piano. In this research, participants perform short melodies from memory while listening to themselves over headphones. During certain performances, the sounds the performer hears deviate in various ways from the produced actions. For example, one might hear the wrong musical pitch when a key is pressed, might hear the correct pitch after a delay, or hear nothing at all. Past research of this sort has revealed that some deviations are more disruptive than others, and different kinds of deviations disrupt different characteristics of performance. The Broader Impacts of the funded research will ultimately include understanding the way coordination goes awry in certain disorders such as stuttering.

当我们说话和唱歌时，我们不仅会发出声音，还会听到我们发出的声音。 聋哑人的讲话，或者在一个大的、有回响的大厅里唱国歌时遇到的困难，都凸显了监控我们自己的声音的重要性。 然而，过去研究中令人费解的证据表明，感知反馈在行动的执行中发挥的作用有限。 Peter Q. Pfordresher 博士将在国家科学基金会的支持下进一步探索这个难题。 他研究的关键问题是行动的流畅性在多大程度上取决于对行动结果的感知？ 这项资助的研究重点是人们在钢琴上演奏旋律时听到的声音。 在这项研究中，参与者一边通过耳机聆听自己的声音，一边根据记忆演奏短旋律。 During certain performances, the sounds the performer hears deviate in various ways from the produced actions. 例如，按下琴键时，人们可能会听到错误的音调，延迟后可能会听到正确的音调，或者根本听不到任何声音。 过去的此类研究表明，某些偏差比其他偏差更具破坏性，并且不同类型的偏差会破坏不同的绩效特征。 这项资助研究的更广泛影响最终将包括了解协调在某些疾病（例如口吃）中出错的方式。
