Music can reduce stress and anxiety, enhance positive mood, facilitate social bonding. However, little is known about the role of music related personal or cultural (individualistic vs. collectivistic) variables in maintaining wellbeing during times isolation as imposed by COVID-19 crisis. In an online questionnaire, administered 11 countries (Argentina, Brazil, China, Colombia, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, UK, USA, N = 5,619), participants rated relevance goals pandemic,...
The fields of music, health, and technology have seen significant interactions in recent years developing music for health care well-being. In an effort to strengthen the collaboration between involved disciplines, workshop “Music, Computing, Health” was held discuss best practices state-of-the-art at intersection these areas with researchers from psychology neuroscience, therapy, information retrieval, technology, medical (medtech), robotics. Following discussions workshop, this article...
Abstract Mental imagery is a highly common component of everyday cognitive functioning. While substantial progress being made in clarifying this fundamental human function, much still unclear or unknown. A more comprehensive account mental aspects would be gained by examining individual differences age, sex, and background experience an activity their association with different modalities intentionality levels. The current online study combined multiple self-report measures sample ( n = 279)...
Perceiving musical rhythms can be considered a process of attentional chunking over time, driven by accent patterns. A rhythmic structure also generated internally, placing subjective pattern on an isochronous stimulus train. Here, we investigate the event-related potential (ERP) signature actual and accents, thus disentangling low-level perceptual processes from cognitive aspects rhythm processing. The results show differences between accented unaccented events, but that different types...
In recent years, musicians have been increasingly recruited to investigate grey and white matter neuroplasticity induced by skill acquisition. The development of Diffusion Tensor Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DT-MRI) has allowed more detailed investigation connections within the brain, addressing questions about effect musical training on connectivity between specific brain regions. Here, current DT-MRI analysis techniques are discussed available evidence from studies into differences in...
Auditory cues are frequently used to support movement learning and rehabilitation, but the neural basis of this behavioural effect is not yet clear. We investigated microstructural neuroplasticity effects adding musical a motor task. hypothesised that music-cued, left-handed training would increase fractional anisotropy (FA) in contralateral arcuate fasciculus, fibre tract connecting auditory, pre-motor regions. Thirty right-handed participants were assigned condition either with (Music...
The potentiation of glycine-induced responses by ethanol (EtOH) was studied in neurons freshly dissociated from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) 5- to 14-day-old postnatal rats using whole-cell and gramicidin-perforated patch-clamp techniques. Under current-clamp conditions, EtOH increased membrane depolarization action potential firing. voltage-clamp (0. 1-40 mM) alone did not elicit a current. When coapplied with glycine, enhanced current 35% (180 474) neurons. EtOH-induced enhancement...
Music is commonly used to facilitate or support movement, and increasingly in movement rehabilitation. Additionally, there some evidence suggest that music imagery, which reported lead brain signatures similar perception, may also assist movement. However, it not yet known whether either imagined musical cueing changes the way motor system of human activated during simple movements. Here, functional magnetic resonance imaging was compare neural activity wrist flexions performed heard with...
Subjective accenting is a cognitive process in which identical auditory pulses at an isochronous rate turn into the percept of pattern. This can be voluntarily controlled, making it candidate for communication from human user to machine brain–computer interface (BCI) system. In this study we investigated whether subjective feasible paradigm BCI and how its time-structured nature exploited optimal decoding non-invasive EEG data. Ten subjects perceived imagined different metric patterns (two-,...
Music is created in the listener as it perceived and interpreted - its meaning derived from our unique sense of it; likely driving range interpersonal differences found music processing. Person-specific mental representations are thought to unfold on multiple levels we listen, spanning an entire piece regularities detected across notes. As track incoming auditory information, predictions generated at different for musical aspects, leading specific percepts behavioral outputs, illustrating a...
Movement science research indicates that an external focus of attention benefits learning as well performing movement. Despite these findings from the field sports, on effects in music pedagogy is sparse, especially naturalistic settings. This in-depth, small-sample study investigated effect musical terms accuracy, self-efficacy, confidence, motivation, and engagement, qualitative performance experience. Seven conservatoire (natural trumpet) students practiced challenging, unfamiliar pieces...
We examined the effect of ondansetron, an antagonist type 3 serotonin receptors, on whole cell response freshly isolated hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons neonatal and "mature" rats to glycine using gramicidin perforated patch technique. Ondansetron depressed current induced by subsaturating concentrations (IGly) in a concentration-dependent manner. The ondansetron concentration needed depress IGly 30 microM half amplitude was 25 microM. (54 microM) shifted concentration-response curve right...
