Fantastic display of collaboration in #musicpsych!!
Sometimes I remember that I have a bluesky account ;)
I'm very happy to share our last paper, investigating how cognitive skills relate to different levels of musical expertise:

I'm reading an old, classic psychoacoustic experiment (N=3). It is written by 3 authors, and 2 are also subjects. In the procedure authors write: "Subjects [...] were encouraged to "bracket" the match before making the final adjustment".

Check out this really cool multilab project about the difference in short-term memory between musicians and non-musicians! By @masssimo006.bsky.social, @francescatalamini.bsky.social, and researchers from 33 institutions around the world.
