Abstract

Does music training facilitate foreign-language grammar learning? We found a positive link between years of music training and incidental learning of Russian noun morphology. However, this effect was mediated by Culture Fair intelligence, suggesting that specific cognitive abilities might underlie both uptake of music training and success in language learning
