Speech perception is believed to recruit the left motor cortex. However, the exact role of the
laryngeal subregion and its right counterpart in speech perception, as well as their temporal …

Nonmusicians remember vocal melodies (ie, sung to la la) better than instrumental
melodies. If greater exposure to the voice contributes to those effects, then long-term …

Music cognition is typically studied with instrumental stimuli. Adults remember melodies
better, however, when they are presented in a biologically significant timbre (ie, the human …

La relación entre la música y el lenguaje ha sido ampliamente estudiada desde diversas
perspectivas y en general se atribuyen a la música efectos sobre los procesos cognitivos …

While the significance of auditory cortical regions for the development and maintenance of
speech motor coordination is well established, the contribution of somatosensory brain …

There is a long tradition of investigating various disorders of musical abilities after stroke.
These impairments, associated with acquired amusia, can be highly selective, affecting only …

Spontaneous motor cortical activity during passive perception of action has been interpreted
as a sensorimotor simulation of the observed action. There is currently interest in how …

Film Music: Cognition to Interpretation explores the dynamic counterpoint between a film's
soundtrack, its visuals and narrative, and the audience's perception and construction of …

Voicing is one of the most important characteristics of phonetic speech sounds. Despite its
importance, voicing perception mechanisms remain largely unknown. To explore auditory …

Many theorists have proposed that a spontaneous internal motor simulation occurs during
the observation of intentional actions, and that this simulation supports action …
