Resumen

 

En los últimos años ha surgido la interrogante de si es posible entrenar las funciones ejecutivas y se considera que la música, por su alto nivel de complejidad, genera un efecto en estos procesos. Pese a que se ha encontrado una relación entre un entrenamiento musical y las funciones ejecutivas, estos resultados son contradictorios y no existe una estimación cuantitativa de la fuerza de esta posible asociación o bien, estudios que integren los resultados de investigaciones similares para esclarecer la problemática planteada. El objetivo del presente estudio fue estimar meta-analíticamente el  efecto del entrenamiento musical sobre el procesamiento ejecutivo, así como identificar potenciales variables moderadoras. Se encontró un tamaño de efecto moderado (d=.51) el cual indica que las personas que recibieron un entrenamiento musical presentaron un mejor desempeño en las tareas de funciones ejecutivas en comparación a los participantes que no estuvieron expuestos a un entrenamiento de esta naturaleza.
