Abstract
In spite of the fact that the majority can carry a tune,some individuals show deficits in producing or imitating pitch.During the past decade,the poor-pitch singing domain has produced a large body of literature on the definition,cause and mechanism of poor-pitch singing.To date,there has not been a standard strategy to identify poor-pitch singers,while it is likely to provide thorough information over an individual's singing proficiency to use the multi-task,multi-measure,and relative criterion approach.Singing involves four major components:perception,sensorimotor integration,vocal motor controlling,and memory.Among them,the deficient sensorimotor integration is thought to be the major cause of poor-pitch singing.The recent MMIA model describes the distorted association between auditory and vocal motor imagery,offering a proposal for how the abstract notion of an internal model over the sensorimotor association is implemented within the auditory-vocal system.Future study should further explore the auditory-vocal motor association by testing and refining the MMIA model,which paves the ground to improve individuals' pitch singing skills.关键词
