Long-term musical training can protect against age-related upregulation of neural activity in speech-in-noise perception

Bilateral RSFC of the three groups.
ONMs and OMs showed upregulated RSFC in bilateral dorsal streams compared to YNMs. Violin and point plots show the individual RSFC in specific target regions. Data are available on OSF (https://osf.io/89hbn/). ** < 0.01, *

< 0.1, OMs, older musicians; ONMs, older non-musicians; YNMs, young non-musicians; pSTG, posterior part of superior temporal gyrus; SMG, supramarginal gyrus; SMA, supplementary areas; SM, speech motor areas; PrCGsup, superior part of precentral gyrus; L, left; R, right.
