Abstract

Inhibition control is an essential executive function during children's development, underpinning self-regulation and the acquisition of social and language abilities. This executive function is intensely engaged in music training while learning an instrument, a complex multisensory task requiring monitoring motor performance and auditory stream prioritization. This novel meta-analysis examined music-based training on inhibition control in children. Records from 1980 to 2023 yielded 22 longitudinal studies with controls (N = 1734), including 8 RCTs and 14 others. A random-effects meta-analysis showed that music training improved inhibition control (moderate-to-large effect size) in the RCTs and the superset of twenty-two longitudinal studies (small-to-moderate effect size). Music training plays a privileged role compared to other activities (sports, visual arts, drama) in improving children's executive functioning, with a particular effect on inhibition control. We recommend music training for complementing education and as a clinical tool focusing on inhibition control remediation (e.g., in autism and ADHD).

音乐训练能提高儿童的抑制控制能力吗？系统回顾和荟萃分析

抑制控制是儿童成长过程中的一项重要执行功能，是自我调节以及获得社交和语言能力的基础。在学习乐器的过程中，这种执行功能会在音乐训练中得到强化，因为这是一项复杂的多感官任务，需要监控运动表现和听觉流的优先级。这项新颖的荟萃分析研究了基于音乐的儿童抑制控制训练。从1980年到2023年的记录中，共发现了22项有对照的纵向研究（N = 1734），其中包括8项RCT和14项其他研究。随机效应荟萃分析表明，在研究性试验和 22 项纵向研究的超集（小至中等效应大小）中，音乐训练改善了抑制控制（中至大效应大小）。与其他活动（体育、视觉艺术、戏剧）相比，音乐训练在提高儿童的执行功能方面发挥着重要作用，尤其是在抑制控制方面。我们建议将音乐训练作为教育的补充和临床工具，侧重于抑制控制的补救（如自闭症和多动症）。

期刊介绍： Cognition is an international journal that publishes theoretical and experimental papers on the study of the mind. It covers a wide variety of subjects concerning all the different aspects of cognition, ranging from biological and experimental studies to formal analysis. Contributions from the fields of psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, computer science, mathematics, ethology and philosophy are welcome in this journal provided that they have some bearing on the functioning of the mind. In addition, the journal serves as a forum for discussion of social and political aspects of cognitive science.
