知觉不变性已被研究并发现在认知的几个领域，包括语言、运动行为和物体运动。这也是音乐知觉方面的几项研究的主题。然而，现有的知觉研究对音乐演奏中节奏变换下的表达节拍的知觉不变性提供了相当不确定的证据。目前的研究使用了一种新的实验方法，该方法利用了新技术，如在线互联网设置、高质量音频和最先进的节奏转换技术。结果表明，当被要求比较两段录音时，听者能够辨别出哪一段是原始的表演，其中一段经过了节奏转换，使两段录音的总体节奏相似。这一结果被认为是对节奏特定计时假说的支持--该假说预测，节奏转换后的表演听起来不会像原始表演那样自然--并作为关系不变计时假说的反证，关系不变计时假说预测节奏转换后的表演听起来同样自然。
Perceptual invariance has been studied and found in several domains of cognition, including those of speech, motor behavior, and object motion. It has also been the topic of several studies in music perception. However, the existing perceptual studies present rather inconclusive evidence with regard to the perceptual invariance of expressive timing under tempo transformation in music performance. The current study used a novel experimental methodology that took advantage of new technologies, such as an online Internet setup, high-quality audio, and state-of-the-art tempo-transformation techniques. The results show that listeners could detect which was the original performance when asked to compare 2 recordings, I of which was tempo-transformed to make both similar in overall tempo. This result is taken as support for the tempo-specific timing hypothesis-which predicts that a tempo-transformed performance will sound less natural than an original performance-and as counterevidence for the relationally invariant timing hypothesis, which predicts that a tempo-transformed performance will sound equally natural.
