Objective: Music and speech are complex signals containing regularities in how they unfold
in time. Similarities between music and speech/language in terms of their auditory features …

Here we review the role of brain oscillations in sensory processing. We examine the idea
that neural entrainment of intrinsic oscillations underlies the processing of rhythmic stimuli in …

Although a growing literature points to substantial variation in speech/language abilities
related to individual differences in musical abilities, mainstream models of communication …

Developmental disorders of language include developmental language disorder, dyslexia,
and motor-speech disorders such as articulation disorder and stuttering. These disorders …

Affecting 5% of all preschool-aged children and 1% of the general population,
developmental stuttering—also called childhood-onset fluency disorder—is a complex …

The ability to express thoughts through fluent speech production is a most human faculty,
one that is often taken for granted. Stuttering, which disrupts the smooth flow of speech …

Studies of rhythm processing and of reward have progressed separately, with little
connection between the two. However, consistent links between rhythm and reward are …

Tapping in time to a metronome beat (hereafter beat synchronization) shows considerable
variability in child populations, and individual differences in beat synchronization are reliably …

There is growing evidence that motor and speech disorders co-occur during development. In
the present study, we investigated whether stuttering, a developmental speech disorder, is …

Moving in synchrony to the beat is a fundamental component of musicality. Here we
conducted a genome-wide association study to identify common genetic variants associated …
