Homework Assignment Week 1, due Thursday Oct 4, 2018 no later than 6P
Please emailyour answers in a .doc or .docx file by 6P to then, and
Prof Tramo — no need to print them out (except for the images)
1. Reading (posted on CCLE in Week 1 folder):
- "Brain and Music." MJ Tramo (2003), Halyard Dictionary of Music
- "Music of the Hemispheres." MJ Tramo (2001), Science
2. Go online and find images of the surfaces of the cerebral hemispheres (lateral,
medial, superior, and inferior views) where each gyms and/or Scut are labeled. Select
images you yourself find informative that you can use throughout the course as a
reference when you read future papers. Then please email your images to the TAs and
Prof Tramo, and also print them and bring them to class Thurs Oct 4.
3. Please complete the following and email the TAs and Prof Tramo:
a) Name
b) Year (e.g. junior, senior)
c) Major
d) Minor (if any)
e) The probability (0%, 10%, 20%...100%) you will stay in the course
f) Why do you want to take the course and what would you like to learn about Music
& the Brain?
g) Music background (if any)
h) Research background (if any)
i) Any other information you might like to convey

4. Review the list of seminars and email the TAs and Prof Tramo the three topics you
would like to present in order of preference.
5. We simplified cerebrocortical structure-function correlates by categorizing the
many functional areas of the cerebral cortex into three broad functional subdivisions.
Type the letter on the line with the matching description.
A. Modality-specific areas
B. Multi-modal areas
C. Supra-modal areas
neurons in these areas mediate sensory-sensory integration (e.g.,
auditory-visual integration) and sensory-motor integration (e.g., auditory-
motor integration)
neurons in these areas mediate processing in only one sensory modality
or in only motor functions
neurons in these areas participate in but can transcend processing of
sensory stimuli at the interface between the self and the external world

6. Type the letter on the line with the matching description. (8 points)
A. Modality-specific auditory cortex
B. One of the cortical regions housing multi-modal neurons
C. One of the cortical regions housing supra-modal neurons that bring
the past into the present
D. One of the cortical regions housing supra-modal neurons that bring
the future into the present
anterior frontal cortex (2 points)
superior temporal cortex (2 points)
medial temporal cortex (2 points)
posterior parietal cortex (2 points)
7. Many cognitive functions are mediated by both cerebral hemispheres. The
following two are strongly lateralized to one or the other hemisphere in right-handed
people.
A. propositional speech
B. spatial navigation
in a right-handed patient with a Stroke, deficits are typically caused by
damage to the Left Cerebral Hemisphere (1 point)
in a right-handed patient with a Stroke, deficits are typically caused by
damage to the Right Cerebral Hemisphere (1 point)
