The Effect of Music on Intelligence Music is said to influence the intellect of human beings in many different ways. Specifically, it is said to affect newborns more than any other age group. Music can improve learning skills, test-taking skills, concentration, heart rate and relaxation. Music has been shown to provide numerous benefits to infants, toddlers, young adults, and even adults. With all this in mind, how can music connect with the intellect? Many recent studies focus on theoretically demonstrating how music improves cognitive thinking. These studies show that early learning experiences determine which neurons will connect with other neurons and which will die. Connections between neurons (synaptic connections) are largely linked to adult intelligence. They increase at the fastest rate during the first six years of human life. Musical training is said to develop synaptic connections related to abstract thinking. For this reason, the number of music lessons taught from the age of six is ​​dramatically increasing. The right hemisphere of the human brain serves to process information spontaneously or intuitively. For example, the way a person responds to the art of music is a form of intuitive thought process. The left hemisphere of the human brain functions to process information in a linear or sequential manner. Learning subjects such as mathematics or English are excellent examples of this process. After using a brain scanning technique, the scientists found that the musicians had a 25% magnification in the response area on the right side of the brain. This broadening was greatest for musicians who began studying music at a young age. Newborns tend to use the right hemisphere before the left; they react immediately to visual and tone changes before reacting to counting or words. Therefore, children are exposed to music and nursery rhymes. Children and adults respond to music in similar ways. Infants and adults were tested to examine any possible relationships between each group's reaction to listening to music. During the experiment, it was found that the children immediately turned their heads towards the music when one was presented. Likewise, when the test was administered to adults, they responded the same way. These tests show that response patterns in both children and adults are the same, with...... middle of paper ......ent relax and relax. Exercise plays a crucial role in maintaining good health, and music can help with this. Music reduces muscle tension, ensuring a better and more efficient workout. The scientists performed controlled studies using adult males around 25 years old. The scientists took blood samples before and after running on the treadmill. The experiment found that with the presence of music, heart rate, blood pressure and lactate secretion in the brain were significantly lower. The results showed that music improves workouts and reduces stress. Music benefits infants, toddlers, college students, and adults. Experiments related to music exposure and intelligence are ubiquitous and generally positive. Music is gaining a reputation for having more power than it used to. Different types of music create different effects depending on the person. Listening to a fast, upbeat song might give someone the energy to exercise; listening to a soft, soothing song could put one to sleep.
