Past Studies

Listening and Music

In the Listening and Music study, we aim to investigate whether children with music expertise can listen to speech in noisy environments, such as a busy school cafeteria, more effectively than those without music expertise. We are recruiting children aged between 10 and 12 years who are currently receiving formal training in playing a musical instrument, as well as children with no formal instrument training.
