Summary:
In a study called 'the
largest investigation of the association between playing a musical instrument
and brain development,' a child psychiatry team has found that musical training
might also help kids focus their attention, control their emotions and diminish
their anxiety.
......................
children who play the
violin or study piano could be learning more than just Mozart. A University of
Vermont College of Medicine child psychiatry team has found that musical
training might also help kids focus their attention, control their emotions and
diminish their anxiety. Their research is published in the Journal
of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry.
James Hudziak, M.D., professor of psychiatry and director of the Vermont
Center for Children, Youth and Families, and colleagues including Matthew
Albaugh, Ph.D., and graduate student research assistant Eileen Crehan, call
their study "the largest investigation of the association between playing
a musical instrument and brain development."
The research continues Hudziak's work with the National Institutes of
Health Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Study of Normal Brain Development.
Using its database, the team analyzed the brain scans of 232 children ages 6 to
18.
As children age, the cortex -- the outer layer of the brain -- changes in
thickness. In previous analysis of MRI data, Hudziak and his team discovered
that cortical thickening or thinning in specific areas of the brain reflected
the occurrence of anxiety and depression, attention problems, aggression and
behavior control issues even in healthy kids -- those without a diagnosis of a
disorder or mental illness. With this study, Hudziak wanted to see whether a
positive activity, such as music training, would influence those indicators in
the cortex.
The study supports The Vermont Family Based Approach, a model Hudziak
created to establish that the entirety of a young person's environment --
parents, teachers, friends, pets, extracurricular activities -- contributes to
his or her psychological health. "Music is a critical component in my model,"
Hudziak says.
The authors found evidence they expected -- that music playing altered the
motor areas of the brain, because the activity requires control and
coordination of movement. Even more important to Hudziak were changes in the
behavior-regulating areas of the brain. For example, music practice influenced
thickness in the part of the cortex that relates to "executive
functioning, including working memory, attentional control, as well as
organization and planning for the future," the authors write.
A child's musical background also appears to correlate with cortical
thickness in "brain areas that play a critical role in inhibitory control,
as well as aspects of emotion processing."
The findings bolster Hudziak's hypothesis that a violin might help a child
battle psychological disorders even better than a bottle of pills. "We
treat things that result from negative things, but we never try to use positive
things as treatment," he says.
Such an approach may prove difficult to accomplish. According to the
study's authors, research from the U.S. Department of Education indicates that
three-quarters of U.S. high school students "rarely or never" take
extracurricular lessons in music or the arts.
"Such statistics, when taken in the context of our present neuroimaging
results," the authors write, "underscore the vital importance of
finding new and innovative ways to make music training more widely available to
youths, beginning in childhood."
