TITLE:
Moving to music: Neural, cognitive and kinematic findings
ABSTRACT:
One of music’s most salient aspects is its potential to induce and guide movement. Not only is moving to music intuitive, automatic, and often enjoyable, it also has great clinical potential, for instance in movement rehabilitation. However, the underlying mechanisms of cueing movement with musical rhythm, or indeed the effects of auditory cueing on learning a new movement, are still largely unknown.
To better design effective clinical interventions, more knowledge is needed focusing on how to optimise the opportunity for movement learning. This includes considering specific aspects of the musical cues that may matter, taking into account the difficulty or complexity of the movement, and the cognitive resources that may be needed to adequately make use of this cue. Using measures of neural function, cognitive functioning and motion registration, the potential impact of the cue, the movement, and the person performing the movement are discussed.
