演奏乐器是一种强烈的,多感官的和运动的体验,通常在很小的时候就开始了,需要在音乐家的一生中获得和保持一系列技能。因此,音乐家提供了一个很好的人类模型,用于研究获得专门的感觉运动技能对大脑的影响。例如,音乐家学习并反复练习将运动动作与特定的声音和视觉模式(音乐符号)联系起来,同时接受连续的多感官反馈。这种关联学习可以加强听觉和运动区域之间的联系(例如,弓状束)同时激活多模式整合区(例如,顶内沟周围)。我们认为,这种神经网络的训练可能会对其他行为或认知操作产生跨模态影响,这些操作都依赖于这种网络。这个网络中的可塑性可以解释与音乐训练相关的一些感觉运动和认知增强。这些增强表明音乐制作作为神经和发育障碍以及与正常衰老相关的互动治疗或干预的潜力。
Playing a musical instrument is an intense, multisensory, and motor experience that usually commences at an early age and requires the acquisition and maintenance of a range of skills over the course of a musician's lifetime. Thus, musicians offer an excellent human model for studying the brain effects of acquiring specialized sensorimotor skills. For example, musicians learn and repeatedly practice the association of motor actions with specific sound and visual patterns (musical notation) while receiving continuous multisensory feedback. This association learning can strengthen connections between auditory and motor regions (e.g., arcuate fasciculus) while activating multimodal integration regions (e.g., around the intraparietal sulcus). We argue that training of this neural network may produce cross-modal effects on other behavioral or cognitive operations that draw on this network. Plasticity in this network may explain some of the sensorimotor and cognitive enhancements that have been associated with music training. These enhancements suggest the potential for music making as an interactive treatment or intervention for neurological and developmental disorders, as well as those associated with normal aging.
