Neural Biomarkers for Dyslexia, ADHD, and ADD in the Auditory Cortex of Children.

TL;DR: Differential biomarkers for a brain-based diagnosis of dyslexia, ADHD, and ADD are provided for the first time and in children playing a musical instrument, the observed interhemispheric asynchronies were reduced by about 2/3, thus suggesting a strong beneficial influence of music experience on brain development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence and function of Heschl's gyrus morphotypes in musicians.

TL;DR: The results suggest that HG multiplications occur much more frequently in musicians than in the general population and constitute a functional unit with HG.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reduced cortical thickness in Heschl's gyrus as an in vivo marker for human primary auditory cortex

TL;DR: Low cortical thickness (CTH) analysis based on high‐resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) in primary school children and adults is applied, suggesting reduced CTH as an in vivo marker for identifying shape and localization of PAC in the individual brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Examining Individual Differences in Singing, Musical and Tone Language Ability in Adolescents and Young Adults with Dyslexia

TL;DR: In this article , a discriminant analysis of magnetencephalography (MEG) revealed that individuals with dyslexia showed prolonged latencies in P1, N1, and P2 responses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Singing Mandarin? What Short-Term Memory Capacity, Basic Auditory Skills, and Musical and Singing Abilities Reveal About Learning Mandarin

TL;DR: This article developed Mandarin tone discrimination and pronunciation tasks to assess individual differences in adult participants' tone language ability and found that short-term memory capacity, singing ability, pitch perception preferences, and tone frequency (high vs. low tones) were the most important predictors.
