Experimental evidence for synchronization to a musical beat in a nonhuman animal.

28 Apr 2009 The tendency to move in rhythmic synchrony with a musical beat (e.g., via head bobbing, foot tapping, or dance) is a human universal [1] yet is not commonly observed in other species [2]. Does this ability reflect a brain specialization for music ...

Spontaneous motor entrainment to music in multiple vocal mimicking species.

28 Apr 2009 The human capacity for music consists of certain core phenomena, including the tendency to entrain, or align movement, to an external auditory pulse [1-3]. This ability, fundamental both for music production and for coordinated dance, has been ...

Looking for a pattern: an MEG study on the abstract mismatch negativity in musicians and nonmusicians.

28 Apr 2009 BACKGROUND: The mismatch negativity (MMN) is an early component of event-related potentials/fields, which can be observed in response to violations of regularities in sound sequences. The MMN can be elicited by simple feature (e.g. pitch) deviations ...

Musical and verbal memory in Alzheimer's disease: a study of long-term and short-term memory.

24 Apr 2009 Musical memory was tested in Alzheimer patients and in healthy older adults using long-term and short-term memory tasks. Long-term memory (LTM) was tested with a recognition procedure using unfamiliar melodies. Short-term memory (STM) was evaluated ...

Brain to music to brain!

20 Apr 2009 It has been implicitly understood that culture and music as collective products of human brain in turn influence the brain itself. Now, imaging and anatomical data add substance to this notion. The impact of playing piano on the brain of musicians ...

How much residual hearing is 'useful' for music perception with cochlear implants?

20 Apr 2009 AIM: To compare performance on a song recognition task of bilaterally combined electric and acoustic hearing (bimodal stimulation) with electric or acoustic hearing alone. METHODS: Subjects were 14 adults with cochlear implants (CI) who continued to ...

Neural bases of individual differences in beat perception.

15 Apr 2009 When people listen to music, they often move their body in time with the beat. However, people differ widely in their tendency to 'feel a beat'. Why? Here we combined functional magnetic resonance imaging with a timing task that is diagnostic of ...

Comparison of music perception in bilateral and unilateral cochlear implant users and normal-hearing subjects.

13 Apr 2009 Music plays an important role in the daily life of cochlear implant (CI) users, but electrical hearing and speech processing pose challenges for enjoying music. Studies of unilateral CI (UCI) users' music perception have found that these subjects ...

Relaxing music as pre-medication before surgery: a randomised controlled trial.

12 Apr 2009 INTRODUCTION: Patients who await surgery often suffer from fear and anxiety, which can be prevented by anxiolytic drugs. Relaxing music may be an alternative treatment with fewer adverse effects. This randomised clinical trial compared pre-operative ...

Artificial gravity reveals that economy of action determines the stability of sensorimotor coordination.

11 Apr 2009 BACKGROUND: When we move along in time with a piece of music, we synchronise the downward phase of our gesture with the beat. While it is easy to demonstrate this tendency, there is considerable debate as to its neural origins. It may have a ...
