Vivaldi versus the Beatles.
維瓦爾迪對陣甲殼蟲。
Both great. But your brain may be processing the musical information differently for each.
都很偉大。但是你的大腦也許對他們的音樂風格進行了不同的加工處理。
That's according to research in the journal NeuroImage.
這是根據(jù)《神經(jīng)圖像》雜志上的一篇研究文章得出的結(jié)論。
For the study, volunteers had their brains scanned by functional MRI as they listened to two musical medleys containing songs from different genres.
該研究讓志愿者們在聆聽兩種不同風格音樂合集的時候?qū)τ诖竽X進行核磁共振掃描檢測。
The scans identified brain regions that became active during listening.
結(jié)果顯示在聆聽時大腦區(qū)域會變得活躍。
One medley included four instrumental pieces and the other consisted of songs from the B side of Abbey Road.
一個合集里面包括了四種樂器的表演片段，而令一個則是甲殼蟲的專輯《修道院路》的B面。
Computer algorithms were used to identify specific aspects of the music, which the researchers were able to match with specific, activated brain areas.
計算機輔助程序確認了這些音樂中的某些特質(zhì)，而研究者們則將其與特殊的被激活的大腦功能區(qū)進行聯(lián)系。
The researchers found that vocal and instrumental music get treated differently.
研究人員們發(fā)現(xiàn)聲音以及樂器音樂信息是被不同的大腦區(qū)域加工處理。
While both hemispheres of the brain deal with musical features, the presence of lyrics shifts the processing of musical features to the left auditory cortex.
盡管大腦兩個半球都能夠處理音樂，但左半球負責聽力的腦皮層更偏愛對有歌詞的樂曲信息進行處理。
These results suggest that the brain's hemispheres are specialized for different kinds of sound processing.
這些結(jié)果表明大腦半球?qū)Σ煌曇粜畔⒌拿舾卸仁遣煌摹?/div>
A finding revealed but what you might call instrumental analysis.
有了這樣的結(jié)果日后你將如何解釋儀器分析這門學科呢？
