Today, studies of the individual differences in musical competence &#8211; i.e. the ability to perceive, remember and discriminate subtle deviants in melodies and rhythms &#8211; are primarily relevant for research. For instance, numerous studies investigate how music training may benefit children&#8217;s development and cognitive functions, such as language acquisition and working memory.<\/p>\n<p>The PhD project investigates the relationships between musical activities, musical competence and working memory in a mass experiment involving several Danish schools.
