It appears that there are varying degrees to which people translate the term "Mozart Effect". Some appear to use it on adults, to cure mental disorder. Some use the term to describe using music to further child development. And lastly we come to Don Campbell, who has created a brand that probably sullys any good to come from this research.
Let it be noted that the "Mozart Effect" was first coined in 1991 by Alfred A Tomatis, an otolaryngologist, which is a sect of Medicine specializing in Ear, Nose, and Throat disorder. In 1993 Raucher, Shaw, and Ky later researched this same subject, and posted their finding ins Nature magazine. I'm not ceratain, but I'm going to assume that this trio was a trio of doctors, or else they may have chosen a different location for their articles.
So to conclude, Medical Science has given us the term and study regarding the "Mozart Effect". The brand by Don Campbell (estabilshed in 1997) may have the same name, but it is not related to science, but is a sales gimmick. Music is important to child and adult development. And we are straying from the subject of this thread.
