Speech and music recruit frequency-specific distributed and overlapping cortical networks

How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Human auditory cortex preferentially tracks speech over music without explicit attention (2026, unknown): “For example, with domain-46 selective responses restricted to frequency-specific oscillatory patterns rather than anatomically distinct areas (te Rietmolen et al., 2024).”
The human auditory cortex concurrently tracks syllabic and phonemic timescales via acoustic spectral flux (2024, unknown): “…out the possibility that the broadband signal may be especially sensitive to the coupling measure used in this work, this finding is nevertheless consistent with mounting evidence from different lines of research showing the advantages of using the broadband signal over just the HFa ( 75 – 78 ).”
Complexity in speech and music listening via neural manifold flows (2024, unknown): “Moreover, while short and simple stimuli in the case of speech might still induce linguistic processing, they are often not cognitively relevant to music listening (Neri et al., 2023; te Rietmolen et al., 2024; Ding et al., 2017).”
Neuronal Avalanches in Naturalistic Speech and Music Listening (2023, background): “This result supports previous evidence that speech and music processing mostly rely on shared resources (3).”
