Short-Term Choir Singing Supports Speech-in-Noise Perception and Neural Pitch Strength in Older Adults With Age-Related Hearing Loss.

The Session × Group interaction accounted for marginally significant variance in the FFR strength at F0 [μV; b = 0.0037, t (48) = 1.77, p = 0.0721]; regressions conducted on each group showed that following training, choir participants demonstrated improvements in the neural representation of pitch [ b = 0.0033, t (29) = 2.60, p = 0.009], while control participants did not demonstrate significant changes [ b = −0.00034, t (19) = −0.21, p = 0.8346; see Table 1 ].
