Musical expertise and cognitive abilities: No advantage for professionals over ...
Talamini, F.; Schellenberg, E. G.; Grassi, M.; Lima, C. F.Cognitive advantages in musicians are often attributed to far transfer from music training. If this causal interpretation is correct, greater musical expertise should generally predict larger cognitive gains. To test this prediction, we reanalysed data from the Music Ensemble project—a large-scale initiative including 33 laboratories across 15 countries. We compared 608 nonmusicians, 289 amateur musicians, and ...
Music ensemble: A large dataset on musicianship, cognition, and personality in ...
Talamini, F.; Grassi, M.; Altoè, G.; Brattico, E.; Caclin, A.; Carretti, B.; Drai-Zerbib, V.; Ferreri, L.; Gambarota, F.; Grahnm, J.; Fovino, L. G. N.The Music Ensemble dataset is a large-scale, cross-national database that provides detailed information about the musical, cognitive, personality, and demographic profiles of young adult musicians and nonmusicians. Data were collected from 1438 participants (aged 18–30) across thirty-five research sites in Europe, North America, South America, and Australia. Participants completed an in-person, in-lab battery o...
Raising the value of research studies in psychological science by increasing th...
Kekecs, Z.; Pálfi, B.; Szaszi, B.; Szecsi, P.; Zrubka, M.; Kovacs, M.; Bakos, B.; Cousineau, D.; Tressoldi, P.; Schmidt, K.; Grassi, M.; Evans, T. R.The low reproducibility rate in social sciences has produced hesitation among researchers in accepting published findings at their face value. Despite the advent of initiatives to increase transparency in research reporting, the field is still lacking tools to verify the credibility of research reports. In the present paper, we describe methodologies that let researchers craft highly credible research and allow...
Characterization of a biofilm formed by Fusarium oxysporum on the human nails
Veiga, Flavia Franco; de Castro-Hoshino, Lidiane Vizioli; Sato, Francielle; Baesso, Mauro Luciano; Silva, Sónia Carina; Grassi, M.Background: Fusarium spp. has been considered as an onychomycosis agent, but little is known about the etiopathogenesis of fusarial onychomycosis; thus, the objective of this study was to characterize the fungal-nail interaction and the consequences of the nail infection process by Fusarium oxysporum using the human nail, in an exvivo model. Methods: The kinetic of biofilm production and infection by F. oxyspor...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2013-11-21; Searches for anomalous top quark-antiquark production are presented, based on pp collisions at √s=8 TeV. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb-1, were collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. The observed tt̄ invariant mass spectrum is found to be compatible with the standard...
