    Music can calm the soul and inspire creativity, but it won’t, according to researchers from Harvard, improve intelligence.

“More than 80 percent of American adults think that music can improve children’s grades or intelligence, “said Samuel Mehr, a Harvard Graduate School of Education doctoral student in a statement. “Even in the scientific community, there’s a general belief that music is important to children’s development — but there is very little evidence（证据） supporting the idea that music classes improve children’s intelligence.”

The view that music improves intelligence can date back to a study published in 1993 in the journal Nature, which describes the “Mozart effect” as the ability for people who play instruments to perform better at spatial（空间的） problems. The study later was proved wrong, but the idea that music could make you smarter remained.

To test the connection between music and intelligence, researchers studied 29 parents and their four-year-olds. It turned out that music training did not improve the children’s intelligence. The children who had music training performed only slightly better at one spatial problem.

The researchers then did the study again, but with 45 parents and children. Half the group were given music training and the other half didn’t receive any. As with the first study, the second round produced no evidence that music training made the participants any smarter.

The researchers limited their research to classical music, and didn’t show whether different types of music made any difference. And while they concluded that the idea that music makes you smarter is a myth（谬见）, they argue that teaching children music is still important, and may have other advantages that aren’t all connected with intelligence.
