音乐训练对统计学习能力的促进作用

统计学习能力作为快速习得环境中信息规则的先决条件之一，有助于个体以较小的消耗代价适应环境。音乐训练作为一种由多个感官共同参与的强化活动，被广泛认为是有助于提升认知能力的有效手段。随着统计学习在音乐适应中核心地位的确认以及音乐训练效应的反复验证，近年来，陆续有研究在行为表现和脑机制上证实了音乐训练能够增强个体对输入信息中统计规则的敏感性、促进听觉统计学习能力的提升。然而，关于音乐训练能否促进视觉等其他模态的统计学习能力，目前还存在不一致的结果。未来研究还应对跨模态统计学习能力的音乐训练促进效应做进一步探索；也可选用新手被试进行音乐训练干预，以明确音乐训练与各模态统计学习能力增强之间的因果关系。

The Effect of Musical Training on Statistical Learning

Statistical learning, as one of the prerequisites for rapid acquisition of information regulations in the environment, helps organisms adapt to environmental changes at a lower cost. As an intensive activity with participation of multiple senses, musical training is widely regarded as an effective way to improve cognitive ability. With the confirmation of the core position of statistical learning in music adaptation and the repeated verification of the effect of musical training, in recent years, researches in behavioral performance and brain mechanism have suggested that long-term musical training can enhance the sensitivity of individuals to statistical rules in input information and promote the ability of auditory statistical learning. However, there are still inconsistent results as to whether musical training can promote statistical learning ability of other modes such as vision. The future research should explore the promoting effect of musical training on the cross-modal statistical learning involved auditory, visual and motor. In addition, novice subjects can be selected for musical training intervention, in order to clarify the causal relationship of brain mechanism between musical training and the enhancement of multi-modal statistical learning.
