(Study 2) Decoding performance (hit rates) by musician and non-musician listeners for the task of recognizing 5 types of relational intentions conveyed by musician A to musician B. In the stereo condition, participants could listen to the simultaneous recording of both musicians. In the mono condition, participants only listened to musician A. Reported hit rates were calculated as ratios of the total number of trials in each condition. Hypothesis tests of difference between samples were conducted on the corresponding unbiased hit rates, with $\ast$ indicating significance at the p $<$ .05 level. Abbreviations: CAR: caring; CON: conciliatory; DIS: disdainful; DOM: domineering; INS: insolent; music.: musicians; non: non-musicians.
