Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated the potential for music to enhance the learning new information. The current study examined both behavioral and electrophysiological measures to determine whether musical encoding enhances recognition memory for the general content of novel lyrics. Results show an increased old/new ERP effect for sung vs. spoken conditions.
