Large-scale nested studies of the impact of music on brain and behavioral development

项目摘要/摘要 音乐有助于孩子的发展和健康吗？音乐的积极影响得到了迅速发展的支持 越来越多的科学研究表明，音乐家的大脑是由音乐塑造的， 音乐训练的好处不仅在于音乐能力，还在于基本的非音乐技能。 如注意力、执行功能、社交/情绪功能、语言和技能，这些都构成了 为学术和社会的健康运作奠定基础。尽管如此，深层的问题仍然存在： 音乐参与导致了变化，还是反映了一些潜在的、普遍的因素？关系是什么？ 音乐活动对音乐能力的贡献？以补充过去的研究(通常依赖于 相关观察以及一些小规模干预试验和纵向研究)现在 利用大规模、高维度神经发育研究的前所未有的机会 创造性地在他们中间嵌套关于音乐和发展的影响的问题，专注于积极 参与音乐培训。这种方法在功率和资源效率方面很有吸引力。这三个人- 年项目旨在利用以下两种方法解决音乐培训对发展的影响 我们之前的工作：1)对现有的大规模纵向神经行为数据进行详细分析 抽样/模拟研究，以及2)分析初始数据并奠定进一步的基础，以增强 对11,000多名10岁以上青少年进行的史无前例的ABCD(青少年大脑和认知发展)研究 几年来，全面解决音乐在大脑和认知发展以及身体和健康方面的作用 心理健康。这两个资源一起跨越了整个学年，收集了数千个行为和 每个个体和时间点的大脑变量。该提案将应用开发中的新方法来构建 体验对大脑发育和行为影响的模型具有前所未有的细节。

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Does music help a child's development and health? A positive impact of music is supported by a rapidly growing body of scientific work that has shown that musicians' brains are shaped by music in ways that could underlie benefits of musical training not only on musical abilities, but also on fundamental non-musical skills such as attention, executive function, social/emotional functioning, and language, skills that form the foundation for healthy functioning academically and in society. Despite this, deep questions remain: does music participation cause change, or is it a reflection of some underlying, general factor? What is the relative contribution of music activity vs. music ability? To complement past studies (which have typically relied on correlative observations along with some small-scale intervention trials and longitudinal studies) there is now an unprecedented opportunity to leverage large-scale, high-dimensional neurodevelopmental studies by creatively nesting within them questions about the impact of music and development, focusing on active participation in music training. Such an approach is attractive in its power and resource efficiency. This three- year project seeks to address the impact of music training on development using two approaches building on our prior work: 1) Detailed analysis of existing large-scale longitudinal neurobehavioral data from the PLING/SIMPHONY study, and 2) Analysis of initial data and laying of further groundwork to empower the unprecedented ABCD (Adolescent Brain and Cognitive Development) study of over 11,000 youths over 10 years, to comprehensively address the role of music in brain and cognitive development and physical and mental health. Together, these two resources span the school years, collecting thousands of behavioral and brain variables for each individual and timepoint. This proposal will apply new methods in development to build models of the impact of experiences on the development of brain and behavior with an unprecedented detail.
