Musical training modulates the development of syntax processing in children.
5 May 2009 The question of how musical training can influence perceptual and cognitive abilities of children has been the subject of numerous past studies. However, evidence showing which neural mechanisms underlie changes in cognitive skills in another domain ...

Selective subcortical enhancement of musical intervals in musicians.
4 May 2009 By measuring the auditory brainstem response to two musical intervals, the major sixth (E3 and G2) and the minor seventh (E3 and F#2), we found that musicians have a more specialized sensory system for processing behaviorally relevant aspects of ...

Processing interactions between phonology and melody: vowels sing but consonants speak.
3 May 2009 The aim of this study was to determine if two dimensions of song, the phonological part of lyrics and the melodic part of tunes, are processed in an independent or integrated way. In a series of five experiments, musically untrained participants ...

2 May 2009 Studies of rapid unimanual tapping have assumed that the human rate limit for voluntary rhythmic movement is 5-7 Hz, which corresponds to an inter-tap interval (ITI) of 150-200ms. In fact, the winner of a recent contest to find the world's fastest ...

Effect of sensory adaptation on anxiety of children with developmental disabilities: a new approach.
29 Apr 2009 PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a sensory-adapted dental environment (SADE) on anxiety, relaxation, and cooperation of children with developmental disabilities (CDDs). Pharmacological treatment has been widely used to ...

Vowel-pitch matching in Wagner's operas: implications for intelligibility and ease of singing.
29 Apr 2009 European vowels are mainly distinguished by the two lowest resonance frequencies (R1 and R2) of the vocal tract. Once the pitch frequency f(0) exceeds the value of R1 in normal speech, sopranos can deliberately "tune" R1 to match f(0). This ...
