TABLE 2.

Results of linear regression analyses between musical activity and cognition.

Dependent variable Independent variable B SE B Beta P-value Total R2 (adj.)
1 Global cognition Musical Activity 0.540 0.178 0.250 0.003** 0.062 (0.056)
2 Learning and Memory Musical Activity 0.209 0.165 0.107 0.209 0.011 (0.004)
3 Working Memory Musical Activity 0.669 0.178 0.304 < 0.001*** 0.092 (0.086)
4 Executive Functions Musical Activity 0.465 0.180 0.214 0.011* 0.046 (0.039)
5 Language Musical Activity 0.443 0.170 0.216 0.010* 0.047 (0.040)
6 Visuospatial Musical Activity 0.522 0.176 0.245 0.003** 0.060 (0.053)

Musical activity was included as binary predictor, dummy coded with musical activity = 1, no musical activity = 0. ***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05. p < 0.05 false discovery rate (FDR)-adjusted for statistical tests performed across cognitive domains. B, unstandardized coefficient; SE, standard error; Beta, standardized coefficient; R2, explained variance.
