DOI: 10.1007/s00426-018-0987-6
Abstract: Motor simulation has been implicated in how musicians anticipate the rhythm of another musician’s action to achieve interpersonal synchronization. Here, we investigated whether similar mechanisms govern a related form of rhythmic action: dance. We examined… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-27571-2
Abstract: Individuals differ in musical competence, which we defined as the ability to perceive, remember, and discriminate sequences of tones or beats. We asked whether such differences could be explained by variables other than music training,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/cercor/bhad056
Abstract: Studies showed that the top-down control of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) on sensory/motor cortices changes during cognitive aging. Although music training has demonstrated efficacy on cognitive aging, its brain mechanism is still far from clear.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/cercor/bhx286
Abstract: Several studies comparing adult musicians and nonmusicians have shown that music training is associated with structural brain differences. It is not been established, however, whether such differences result from pre-existing biological traits, lengthy musical training,… read more here.

Music training and child development: a review of recent findings from a longitudinal study
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences"
DOI: 10.1111/nyas.13606
Abstract: Evidence suggests that learning to play music enhances musical processing skills and benefits other cognitive abilities. Furthermore, studies of children and adults indicate that the brains of musicians and nonmusicians are different. It has not… read more here.
