 note = {Many hearing-impaired college students have interests in music, and some of them listen to music
every day. What do hearing-impaired people enjoy in music? Among the several elements in music, focus was
placed on timbre in an experiment. Timbre differs if a musician performs a score with different musical
instruments. Several sets of musical data were prepared from commercial CDs; the same phrases were played
with a variety of musical instruments, and subjects were asked to listen and compare the timbres. Subject
groups consisted of hearing-impaired people, hearing individuals with little or no experience in playing music,
and hearing people who regularly play music. Significant differences were found in the ability to differentiate
timbre among the three groups. Findings showed that hearing-impaired people effectively noted sets in which
all timbres were similar, but they encountered difficulties in differentiating timbres in other cases. The
brightness curve was identified as a possibility for explaining such difficulties.},
