Spontaneous production rates in music and speech: Effector systems or domain specificity?
Article in Frontiers in human neuroscience, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Individuals perform many tasks at an optimal rate that is consistent within but not between individuals, evidenced by the spontaneous rate at which one performs a task in the absence of external rate cues. We tested three hypotheses concerning how spontaneous production rates (SPRs) are generated and associated across language and music tasks: Biomechanical constraints associated with effector systems (vocalized/fingered: H1), reliance on auditory feedback (presence/absence: H2), and domain-specific constraints (speech/music: H3). We tested these hypotheses by having participants produce music and speech sequences, sequences that used vocalized or fingered effectors, plus a Silent finger-tapping condition to test the influence of auditory feedback on spontaneous production rates. SPRs were significantly correlated across all tasks that involved production of auditory feedback, regardless of effector or domain. However, Silent Tapping rates were not significantly correlated with any SPRs that produced auditory feedback. Together, these findings suggest that the generation of auditory feedback plays a critical role in the spontaneous rate at which participants engage in rhythmic motor actions, more so than the biomechanical constraints of effector systems.
