Musical training influences linguistic abilities in 8-year-old children: more evidence for brain plasticity. (2009, background): “this enhancement will be associated with increased amplitude of the positive components as previously found in musician children (Magne et al. 2006).”
Music lessons, pitch processing, and g (2010, positive): “Such advantages extend to tasks that involve the perception of pitch in speech ( Magne, Schon, & Besson, 2006; Marques, Moreno, Castro, & Besson, 2007; Moreno et al., 2009; Schon, Magne, & Besson, 2004; Thompson, Schellenberg, & Husain, 2004; Wong, Skoe, Russo, Dees, & Kraus, 2007).”
Music expertise shapes audiovisual temporal integration windows for speech, sinewave speech, and music (2014, background): “…Munte et al., 2002; Schneider et al., 2005; Hannon and Trainor, 2007; Baumann et al., 2008; Imfeld et al., 2009) that seems to benefit linguistic and non-linguistic skills (Magne et al., 2006; Marques et al., 2007; Moreno et al., 2009; Tzounopoulos and Kraus, 2009; Kraus and Chandrasekaran, 2010).”
Language, music, and the brain: a resource-sharing framework (2011, background): “potentials, e.g., Schon et al., 2004; Magne et al., 2006 ) Wong et al.’s findings were”
Can Music Influence Language and Cognition? (2009, methodology): “A subset of the Portuguese sentences used by Marques et al. (2007) was used, similar to those of Magne et al.”
