The Spatial Numerical Association of Response Codes (SNARC) suggests the existence of an association betweennumber magnitude and response position, with faster left-hand responses to small numbers and faster righthandresponses to large numbers (Dehaene, Bossini, & Giraux, 1993). Moreover, Rusconi, Kwan, Giordano, Umiltà,& Butterworth (2006) showed that the internal representation of pitch height is spatially organized, especially inparticipants with formal musical education (i.e., Spatial Musical Association of Response Codes: the SMARC effect).In the present study we investigated whether a similar association exists between music tempo (beats per minutes)and the spatial position of response execution. Participants were all musically untrained persons. To test ourhypothesis they performed both an order-relevant task (i.e., time comparison task) and an order-irrelevant task (i.e.,timbre judgment task). Results showed a global trend with faster left-hand responses to slower beat sequences andfaster right-hand responses to faster beat sequences. From this evidences we can finally conclude that a SNARC-likeeffect exists for music tempo similar as for pitch height and numbers.
