To compare the cognitive effects of guqin (the oldest Chinese instrument) music and piano music.
Behavioral and event-related potential (ERP) data in a standard two-stimulus auditory oddball task were recorded and analyzed.
This study replicated the previous results of culture-familiar music effect on Chinese subjects: the greater P300 amplitude in frontal areas in a culture-familiar music environment. At the same time, the difference between guqin music and piano music was observed in N1 and later positive complex (LPC: including P300 and P500): a relatively higher participation of right anterior-temporal areas in Chinese subjects.
The results suggest that the special features of ERP responses to guqin music are the outcome of Chinese tonal language environments given the similarity between Guqinos tones and Mandarin lexical tones.
比较古琴（中国最古老的乐器）音乐和钢琴音乐的认知效果。
在标准的两刺激听觉Oddball 任务中记录和分析行为和事件相关电位（ERP）数据。
本研究复制了先前关于文化熟悉音乐对中国被试影响的结果：在文化熟悉的音乐环境中，额区的 P300 振幅更大。同时，在 N1 和后期正复合（LPC：包括 P300 和 P500）中观察到古琴音乐和钢琴音乐之间的差异：中国被试中右前颞区的参与度相对较高。
结果表明，古琴音乐 ERP 反应的特殊特征是由于古琴音与普通话声调的相似性，是中国声调语言环境的结果。
