Motivations for Using Music for Sleep
Traditionally, sleep music is viewed as being soft, calm, and with minimal pitch and dynamic changes. However, recent research has shown that this is not necessarily the case. This variation could be due to people’s various motivations for using music to help them sleep, such as improving one’s mood, distracting oneself, or relaxing. To investigate the link between sleep music motivations and musical characteristics, we analyzed the YouTube comme…
Music listening for improvement of sleep in post-acute rehabilitation of adults with acquired brain injury
Introduction: Acquired brain injury (ABI) often leads to sleep disturbances impacting recovery. Previous research has shown that listening to music at bedtime can have a beneficial effect on sleep quality in various populations, but the impact of bedtime music on sleep problems related to ABI has not been studied. This feasibility study investigates the acceptability and effectiveness of music listening for sleep improvement in ABI patients. Meth…
Inpatient stroke survivors with low gait functioning benefit from music interventions during cardiorespiratory exercise
Introduction: Stroke survivors struggle to meet clinical recommendations for physical exercise duration and intensity. During the past two decades, emerging evidence has shown effectiveness of music interventions for several motor tasks in stroke rehabilitation. Additionally, music has been found effective for increasing exercise performance in athletes and clinical populations. It is postulated that the therapeutic effects of music in physical e…
Music listening has no positive or negative effects on sleep quality of normal sleepers
This paper investigates the effects of a music listening intervention on sleep quality in young participants with normal sleep. Recent studies show that relaxing classical music is an effective intervention to reduce sleep problems. The question arises, if such an intervention might have side effects on people who are not faced with sleep difficulties at first instance. We hypothesized that listening to relaxing classical music has an effect (eit…
