摘要

最近有研究报告称，音乐训练对老年人的执行功能有积极影响。然而，这些效果究竟是由于音乐表演技能的提高，还是由于社交互动和音乐聆听等其他培训内容，目前尚不完全清楚。在此，我们研究了为期 10 周的旋律吉他训练课程对日本一群健康老年人的影响，以及他们的早期音乐表现与执行功能改善之间的关系。参与者被分为实验组和被动对照组；两组都在干预前后完成了一系列执行功能测试。实验组还完成了为本次研究开发的音乐表现评估。我们发现，与对照组相比，干预组的执行功能综合指数有了明显改善。此外，个人音乐表现是预测认知改善的唯一因素。我们的研究结果表明，乐器训练对老年人的认知能力有积极影响，这并不完全归因于社交互动或音乐聆听。进一步的研究应考虑对实验组中音乐表现技能的个体差异进行研究，以了解乐器训练计划的效果。

The association between music performance skills and cognitive improvement in a musical instrument training program for older adults

Recent studies have reported positive effects of music training on older adults’ executive functions. However, it is not completely known whether these outcomes were due to improvement in music performance skills or due to other components of training, such as social interaction and music listening. Here, we investigated the effect of a 10-week melodica training program on a group of healthy older adults in Japan and the relationship between their early music performance and improvements in executive functions. Participants were divided into an experimental and a passive control group; both completed a battery of executive function measures before and after the intervention. The experimental group also completed a music performance evaluation developed for the current study. We found a significant improvement in an executive function composite index for the intervention group as compared with the control group. Moreover, individual musical performance was the only factor to predict cognitive improvement. Our results suggest that musical instrument training has a positive impact on older adults’ cognition which is not solely attributed to social interaction or music listening. Further research should consider the potential of examining individual differences in music performance skills inside the experimental group to understand the effects of instrument training programs.

期刊介绍： Psychology of Music and SEMPRE provide an international forum for researchers working in the fields of psychology of music and music education, to encourage the exchange of ideas and to disseminate research findings. Psychology of Music publishes peer-reviewed papers directed at increasing the scientific understanding of any psychological aspect of music. These include studies on listening, performing, creating, memorising, analysing, describing, learning, and teaching, as well as applied social, developmental, attitudinal and therapeutic studies. Special emphasis is placed on studies carried out in naturalistic settings, especially those which address the interface between music psychology and music education.
