After a brief historical perspective of the relationship between language and music, we review our work on transfer of training from music to speech that aimed at testing the general hypothesis that musicians should be more sensitive than non-musicians to speech sounds. In light of recent results in the literature, we argue that when long-term experience in one domain influences acoustic processing in the other domain, results can be interpreted as common acoustic processing. But when long-term experience in one domain influences the building-up of abstract and specific percepts in another domain, results are taken as evidence for transfer of training effects. Moreover, we also discuss the influence of attention and working memory on transfer effects and we highlight the usefulness of the event-related potentials method to disentangle the different processes that unfold in the course of music and speech perception. Finally, we give an overview of an on-going longitudinal project with children aimed at testing transfer effects from music to different levels and aspects of speech processing.
在简要回顾语言与音乐关系的历史视角之后，我们回顾了我们关于从音乐到言语训练迁移的研究工作，该研究旨在检验一个一般性假设，即音乐家对语音的敏感度应高于非音乐家。鉴于文献中的最新研究成果，我们认为，当一个领域的长期经验影响另一领域的声学处理时，其结果可被解释为共同的声学处理。但当一个领域的长期经验影响另一领域抽象和具体感知的形成时，其结果则被视为训练效果迁移的证据。此外，我们还讨论了注意力和工作记忆对迁移效果的影响，并强调了事件相关电位方法在区分音乐和言语感知过程中展开的不同过程方面的有用性。最后，我们概述了一个正在进行的针对儿童的纵向项目，该项目旨在测试从音乐到言语处理不同水平和方面的迁移效果。
