Abstract
Musical training is associated with enhanced executive functioning. In a Go/No-Go task with 36 participants, musicians showed earlier N2 latencies and reduced P3 amplitudes, suggesting faster conflict detection and more efficient resource allocation. These findings indicate enhanced executive functioning associated with musical training.
