Learning to play a musical instrument helps keep people young, according to a new study. Researchers found that musicians aged 45 to 65 excel in memory and hearing speech in noise compared to non-musicians. While a growing body of research finds musical training gives students learning advantages in the classroom, a new study has found musical training can also offset some of the negative effects of growing old. 如今培养一个孩子需要花费大量的时间和金钱,在崇尚“十八般武艺”的时代,孩子们会一两样乐器不再是一个稀罕事。我们看过学习乐器可以使得人的智商提高的报道,但是乐器的魅力却不仅限于让你变得更聪明而已。根据一项新的发现,会乐器能使得人变得更年轻,倘若是音乐家的话,那效果更加明显。据悉,科学家针对年龄段从45到65岁的“音乐家”展开调查,发现他们的听力以及记忆力水平在同龄人之上。
Study co-author Nina Kraus, director of the Auditory Neuroscience Laboratory at Northwestern University in the United States, said: “Lifelong musical training appears to confer advantages in at least two important functions known to decline with age - memory and the ability to hear speech in noise. The musicians who began playing an instrument at age nine or earlier and consistently played an instrument throughout their lives bested the non-musician group in all but visual working memory, where both groups showed nearly identical ability. Doctor Kraus said the experience of extracting meaningful sounds from a complex soundscape - and of remembering sound sequences enhances the development of auditory skills. She said: “The neural enhancements we see in musically-trained individuals are not just an amplifying or ‘volume knob’ effect.“Playing music engages their ability to extract relevant patterns, including the sound of their own instrument, harmonies and rhythms.”
