Table 5.
The participants in Condition C were the one’s who reported being most familiar with the song, and most interested in music generally.
| Condition | A | C | D |
|---|---|---|---|
| Do you know this song? | |||
| % No | 98 | 90 | 96 |
| How much are you interested in music? | |||
| Mean | 4.7 | 5.25 | 4.9 |
| How much do you think this song matches the chocolate’s taste? | |||
| Mean | 4.8 | 4.9 | 4.7 |
| Match the song with one of the options: | |||
| % Latin America | 68 | 77 | 71 |
| How much do you like this song? | |||
| Mean | 4.5 | 4.8 | 4.8 |
The participants in condition C were also the ones with the highest ratings when matching the song with the chocolate’s taste, and the ones that matched Latin America as the song’s most suitable context. Therefore, a stronger connection between the participants and the sonic stimuli may further be expected to improve the matching process. These results suggest that the participants in Condition C were the ones who were most familiar with the song and that they were also the ones performing a more accurate matching.
