This chapter summarizes a number of studies measuring the degree to which different chords are perceived as related to one another. These perceptual judgments depend strongly on the tonal context according to the principles of contextual dependency proposed in Chapter 6. Supporting results are obtained from studies of memory for chord sequences, also described in Chapter 8. The chapter concludes with a summary of the commonalities found for tonal and harmonic structures.
