Some people constantly encounter the fact that certain melodies get stuck in their brains and are subsequently played back in their minds.
What does this problem indicate? There is an opinion that it is about hidden talent.
American scientists from the University of Santa Cruz conducted a study that showed that melodies do not “stick” to all people.
The experts published the results of their scientific work in the journal Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics .
The researchers noted that they had surveyed a large number of people who claimed to occasionally "suffer" from songs that "stick" to them.
The scientists noted that the respondents were not professional musicians.
In addition, it is emphasized that some of the respondents could not boast of perfect pitch.
However, the researchers emphasized that a significant proportion of people have a latent ability for absolute pitch.
