| H1: | Sensitivity to rhythm will significantly predict the perception of emotion on the dynamic nonverbal decoding test. That is, participants who are able to recognize and maintain a rhythm will demonstrate greater accuracy in perceiving emotions on the ECT than participants who are unable to recognize and maintain a rhythm. |
| H2: | Sensitivity to angularity will significantly predict the perception of emotion on the static nonverbal decoding tests. That is, participants who are better able to detect subtle differences between identical figures presented at two angles will demonstrate greater accuracy in perceiving emotions on the DANVA2-AF and the DANVA2-POS than participants who are less able to detect these angular changes. |
