Ask the doctors: The connection between music and memory |
|
Dec 10, 2025 |
|
SUMMARY: |
|
"a healing practice that, while making headlines today, dates |
|
back centuries. We�re tempted to cite the use of music in |
|
psychiatric hospitals in the early 1800s as one of the earliest |
|
formal uses of it to improve mental and emotional health.... |
|
In exploring the effects of music on cognition, researchers have |
|
found some surprises... |
|
music may have a protective effect on cognition. This includes |
|
the study you asked about from researchers in Australia who |
|
specialize in neuropsychiatry and dementia. They analyzed a |
|
decade of data collected from 10,800 healthy adults in their |
|
70s. They found that people who reported listening to music |
|
almost every day lowered their risk of dementia by nearly 40%. |
|
The protective effect also extended to general cognitive |
|
decline. When assessed separately, the music group outperformed |
|
the nonmusic group on cognitive function and memory tests..." |
