Abstract

The TOFIN experimental paradigm consists in a simple task frequently called as multiple choice, oddball or intruder task. The game generates series of tones (by default three). The task of the player is to identify a tone that does not fit in the sequence. Each of the tones has different harmonical relationship to a base note.

The purpose of tofin_tooth software is to provide a tool to design and run experiments targeting the Theory of Tonal Hierarchies by Carol Krumhansl.

User can choose to present the tone series either after a single tone (the base tone) is presented, over the base tone that plays during whole trial, over a chord, or after a chord briefly resonates.
