Effects Of Early Musical Experience On Auditory Sequence Memory, Adam T. Tierney, Tonya R. Bergeson, David B. Pisoni Jan 2008

Effects Of Early Musical Experience On Auditory Sequence Memory, Adam T. Tierney, Tonya R. Bergeson, David B. Pisoni

Scholarship and Professional Work - Communication

The present study investigated a possible link between musical training and immediate memory span by testing experienced musicians and three groups of musically inexperienced subjects (gymnasts, Psychology 101 students, and video game players) on sequence memory and word familiarity tasks. By including skilled gymnasts who began studying their craft by age six, video game players, and Psychology 101 students as comparison groups, we attempted to control for some of the ways skilled musicians may differ from participants drawn from the general population in terms of gross motor skills and intensive experience in a highly skilled domain from an early age. …

Simply Put: How Diversity Benefits Whites And How Whites Can Simply Benefit Diversity, Angela Mae Kupenda Jan 2008

Simply Put: How Diversity Benefits Whites And How Whites Can Simply Benefit Diversity, Angela Mae Kupenda

Journal Articles

Although there are surmountable legal barriers to racial integration in education, fuller integration is possible. But first, whites must see how they benefit from diversity, and, second, whites must take simple steps toward integration that may, in turn, reveal to whites their desire to become more fully integrated. These two steps may help remove the limiting point to true integration.

Selling The Soul Of Science For A Pot Of Message: Evangelizing Atheism In The God Delusion, Steven C. Walker

BYU Studies

Bestseller lists for the past two years chart a swelling tide of interest in a long-standing backwater: atheism.

Dennett’s Breaking the Spell: Religion as a Natural Phenomenon (2006) and Marc D. Hauser’s Moral Minds (2006), swelled all the more by Harris’s reprise Letter to a Christian Nation (2006). That atheist tidal wave has yet to crest—Carl Sagan hectors us from the grave in …
