Abstract
Considering influence of music of different genres, tempo and emotional color on activity of cardiovascular system in healthy young people, that was seen in current research results, application of music as a method of relaxation or as an adjuvant therapy for some conditions, including both psychic and physical, can be a useful instrument. However, as music is multicomponent, and as reaction of each individual may differ based on his personal experience, leading to conditioned reflexes realization and changes of predicted autonomic responses, further study in this field for systematization of achieved results is necessary.
Description
The term “music” is referred to a specific order of arrangement of sounds in succession, in combination, and in time. The influence of music on human organism includes various effects, such as modulation of mood and emotions, changes of cardiac activity, blood pressure and respiratory pattern (Koelsch S., Jäncke L., 2015). Moreover, autonomic responses to music are showing not only in healthy people, but even in patients with severe disorders of consciousness (Riganello F. et al., 2015). Even though a number of researches cover that topic, the variability of results, the same as diversity of music genres, prevents making the precise conclusions about effects caused by music on human organism, thus proving the importance of studies in that area.
The aim of research was to study the influence of music with different beat frequency and emotional component on indexes of cardiovascular system in healthy young people.
