Journal ArticleDOI

Universal Recognition of Three Basic Emotions in Music

TL;DR: A crosscultural study with participants from a native African population (Mafa) and Western participants, with both groups being naive to the music of the other respective culture, shows that consonance and permanent sensory dissonance universally influence the perceived pleasantness of music.
Journal ArticleDOI

Musical training modulates the development of syntax processing in children

TL;DR: The data suggest that the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying syntax processing in music and language are developed earlier, and more strongly, in children with musical training.
Journal ArticleDOI

Processing of hierarchical syntactic structure in music

TL;DR: The results reveal that a brain mechanism fundamental for syntactic processing is engaged during the perception of music, indicating that processing of hierarchical structure with nested nonlocal dependencies is not just a key component of human language, but a multidomain capacity of human cognition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Normative Development of White Matter Tracts: Similarities and Differences in Relation to Age, Gender, and Intelligence

TL;DR: This comprehensive data-driven approach based on principal components analysis is used to identify effects of age, gender, and brain volume on dMRI parameters, as well as their relative importance and shows that secondary components of these parameters predict full-scale IQ, independently of the age- and gender-related effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Untangling syntactic and sensory processing: An ERP study of music perception

TL;DR: The findings indicate that the ERAN is an index of music-syntactic processing and that theERAN can be elicited even when irregular chords are not detectable based on acoustical factors such as pitch repetition, sensory dissonance, or roughness.
