- Music Lessons Enhance IQ (2004, background): “prove a limited subset of cognitive tasks, specifically, those requiring verbal memory (Ho et al., 2003) or spatial-temporal or mathematical reasoning (Hetland, 2000a; Rauscher, 2002).”
- Can Music Influence Language and Cognition? (2009, neutral): “, 2004; Gromko & Poorman, 1998), verbal memory (Chan et al., 1998; Ho et al., 2003), self-esteem (Costa-Giomi, 2004) and general intelligence (Schellenberg, 2004, 2006).”
- Long-Term Positive Associations between Music Lessons and IQ.

- Musical training influences linguistic abilities in 8-year-old children: more evidence for brain plasticity. (2009, background): “2000), verbal memory (Ho et al. 2003; Fujioka et al. 2006) and general intelligence (Schellenberg 2004).”
- Musician Children Detect Pitch Violations in Both Music and Language Better than Nonmusician Children: Behavioral and Electrophysiological Approaches (2006, neutral): “Results of Main ANOVAs for Music”
- Personality related traits as predictors of music practice: Underlying environmental and genetic influences (2015, background): “Kemp (1996) reported that musicians are relatively more introverted, independent, sensitive, and anxious compared to non-musicians.”
- Long-term musical group interaction has a positive influence on empathy in children (2013, background): “, 1999; Schellenberg, 2001), academic performance (Ho et al., 2003) and even IQ (Schellenberg, 2004), music may be beneficial in yet another way, promoting empathy when experienced as group interaction.”
- Exercising Your Brain: A Review of Human Brain Plasticity and Training-Induced Learning (2008, positive): “Researchers have also suggested that music training enhances mathematical ability and verbal memory (Gardiner, Fox, Knowles, & Jefferey, 1996; Graziano, Peterson, & Shaw, 1999; Ho, Cheung, & Chan, 2003).”
- Musical Training Shapes Structural Brain Development (2009, critical): “Contrary to previous findings, however (Chan et al., 1998; Vaughn, 2000; Ho et al., 2003; Schellenberg, 2004; Rauscher et al., 1997, 2000), children who studied an instrument for 15 months did not show superior progress in visual–spatial and verbal transfer domain outcomes than children who did not…”
