Music has been in our lives for tens of thousands of years and has been at the center of almost all cultures, but how our brain perceives music continues to be a matter of great curiosity. Many studies have found that music has many benefits to human life, and a lot of research is still being done on this subject, and in addition to finding the benefits of music, scientists are also investigating why it is so beneficial.
Researchers at the University of California San Francisco studied how the brain processes melodies by creating a detailed map of human auditory cortex activity when someone hears a melody.
The researchers recorded high-intensity neurophysiological activity directly from the human auditory cortex while participants listened to Western music phrases. Pitch, pitch change, and expectation were selectively encoded in different cortical regions, indicating a spatial map representing different melodic dimensions. The same participants listened to spoken English, and the researchers compared responses to music and speech.
Melodic pitch, pitch-change, and expectation modulate STG (superior temporal gyrus) activity during music listening.
Separate neural populations encode melodic pitch, pitch-change, and expectation.
Although a lot of data is obtained in the research, it reveals that our brain does two things at the same time while listening to music.
Cortical regions selective for music-encoded expectation, while regions encoding pitch and pitch change in music used the same neural code to represent equivalent features of speech. That is, the findings reveal how melody perception recruits both music-specific and general-purpose sound representations.
If you have time, I recommend you take a look at the entire research, Link to the research..
This type of research is really important and I like to see such research. Although it is difficult to obtain clear results in the short term, I believe that they will obtain much more detailed results in the future. I have always been curious about the complex response of our brain to music, and I believe that such research will both satisfy our curiosity and open ways to discover the emotional and therapeutic impacts of music. Many studies reveal the benefits of music, so this type of research is also very important, they will help us learn why it is beneficial and whether it has more benefits.
Enjoy the music and stay with Love.
Question of the Day : What do you think of the above research? If you don't have an answer to this question, You can talk about your favorite song or anything related to music in your comment.
