Musical training offsets memory-loss & effects of aging

Posted on May 13, 2011 by admin


Lifelong musical training appears to offset some of the deleterious effects of aging — memory and the ability to hear speech in noise — researchers at Northwestern University have found.

The researchers tested 18 musicians and 19 non-musicians aged 45 to 65 for speech in noise, auditory working memory, visual working memory, and auditory temporal processing.

They found that musicians who began playing an instrument at age 9 or earlier and consistently played an instrument throughout their lives out-performed the non-musician group in all but visual working memory, where both groups showed nearly identical ability.
