Vaughn, Kathryn
Journal of Aesthetic Education, v34 n3-4 p149-66 Fall-Win 2000
Explores three meta-analyses investigating the relationship between music and mathematics on: (1) correlational studies (n=20); (2) experimental training studies (n=6) instructing students in music performance, then testing them on mathematics skills; and (3) experimental studies (n=15) investigating whether listening to background music during a mathematics test elevated test scores.
