Abstract<\/strong><\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

CThis paper investigates the structural and functional relationships linking musical rhythm processing with executive functions and language. Focusing on a neurocognitive perspective, it examines how specific cortical structures are activated and how this activation, influenced by the brain’s processing of musical rhythm, impacts executive and linguistic functions. Using a descriptive-analytical approach to functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) topography results, we synthesized findings from relevant studies. These studies consistently indicate a synchronized and hierarchical relationship between brain rhythm changes, revealing that these oscillatory patterns are susceptible to external stimulatory interventions. To clarify the role of musical rhythm, we focus on the core determinants of neuropsychological processing: time and rhythm itself. A significant number of cortical and subcortical structures are implicated in musical rhythm processing, including the frontal lobes, superior temporal lobes, hypothalamus, basal nuclei, cerebellum, and suprachiasmatic nucleus, operating within primary and secondary networks. Language function plays an intermediary role in this complex processing and is intrinsically linked to the cognitive processes activated during rhythmic processing of musical tones. This paper addresses a research gap by exploring the combined influence of executive functioning and language on musical rhythm processing. The study demonstrates a functional integration between executive and linguistic functions, enhanced by rhythmic musical processing. Furthermore, the overlap between rhythmic processing and executive function activities highlights the potential for designing novel rehabilitation strategies for language deficits or cognitive decline associated with aging.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
