简要总结
Among the theories of tinnitus generation, there is that of central neuroplastic changes, which reports the association between changes and reorganization that occur in central auditory pathways and impacts on associated areas due to the altered neural signal. Auditory training modifies these altered pathways through auditory exercises, which provoke positive neuroplasticity. Musical auditory training is a proposal to stimulate auditory, cognitive and metalinguistic skills with activities focused on musicality. Therefore, the objective of this study is to verify the effect of musical auditory training (MAT) on the neuroplasticity of the auditory system and the perception of tinnitus disorder in young adults.
