Cortical Thickness in Intraparietal Sulcus Predicts Success in Performing Musical Transformation Judgments

[...]when we explicitly factor out musical training, a significant predictive relationship remains between cortical thickness in left posterior IPS and Transposed Melody task performance (Figure 2); no such effect is seen for the Simple Melody and Rhythm tasks, which do not require relative pitch pr...

Summary:[...]when we explicitly factor out musical training, a significant predictive relationship remains between cortical thickness in left posterior IPS and Transposed Melody task performance (Figure 2); no such effect is seen for the Simple Melody and Rhythm tasks, which do not require relative pitch processing.
