The study examined the role of set-class identity for the subjects' estimations of chords. Additionally, the study examined what factors other than the set-class identity were guiding the subjects' estimations. In the test the subjects (professional musicians, amateurs, and non-musicians) heard sequences of five chords. Four chords were derived from one set-class and one chord from another set-class. The subjects were asked to rate which chord did not belong to the same group as the others. It was found that the subjects selected the chord according to the set-class identity in approximately 61% of the cases. The chordal factors guiding the subjects' estimations were also analyzed. Among these factors were the register of the chords and the arrangement of the pitches within the chords
