Book The Effect of Auditory motor Synchronization on Physiological Responses and Perceived Exertion During Treadmill Running

Download or read book The Effect of Auditory motor Synchronization on Physiological Responses and Perceived Exertion During Treadmill Running written by Tracy J. Kiel and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Synchronous, asynchronous, and no music were compared to determine the effect of synchronization of musical tempo and running cadence on physiological and perceptual responses to exercise. Eight subjects, three males and five females, participated in one assessment trial and three experimental trials. During the assessment trial, subjects performed a VO2max test, and researchers then calculated running cadence at a velocity approximating 70 percent of VO2max. During the three experimental trials, subjects ran for 20 minutes at approximately 70 percent of VO2max on a motorized treadmill with synchronous, asynchronous, and no music, where the order of trials was randomly assigned to each participant. VO2, blood lactate, heart rate, perceived exertion, and cadence were recorded every five minutes. A two-way ANOVA revealed a significant main effect for time on RPE, HR, VO2, and blood lactate. The effect of music condition was not significant, p>.05. Results and recommendations for further studies are discussed.

Book The Impact of Music on Human Development and Well Being

Download or read book The Impact of Music on Human Development and Well Being written by Michele Biasutti and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2020-07-17 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music is one of the most universal ways of expression and communication in human life and is present in the everyday lives of people of all ages and from all cultures around the world. Music represents an enjoyable activity in and of itself, but its influence goes beyond simple amusement. Listening to music, singing, playing, composing and improvising, individually and collectively, are common activities for many people: these activities not only allow the expression of personal inner states and feelings, but also can bring many positive effects to those who engage in them. There is an increasing wealth of literature concerning the wider benefits of musical activity, and research in the sciences associated with music suggests that there are many dimensions of human life (physical, social, psychological—including cognitive and emotional) which can be affected positively by music. The impact that musical activity has on human life can be found in different processes, including a transfer of learning from the musical to another cognitive domain. Abilities that have been developed through music education and training may also be effectively applied in other cognitive tasks. Engagement in successful music activity may also have a positive impact on social skills and social inclusion, thus supporting the participation of the individual in collective and collaborative musical events. The promotion of social participation through music can foster many kinds of inclusion, including intercultural, intergenerational, and support for those who are differently abled. The aim of this Research Topic is to present a diverse range of original articles that investigate and discuss, in different ways, the crucial role that musical activity can play in human development and well-being.

Book The Effects of Music Choice on Perceptual and Physiological Responses to Treadmill Exercise

Download or read book The Effects of Music Choice on Perceptual and Physiological Responses to Treadmill Exercise written by Taylor A. Shimshock and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigated the effects of music choice on the ratings of attentional focus, affective valence, perceived exertion, and enjoyment during and after self-paced treadmill exercise of varied intensities. Thirty-four college-aged, healthy, active males and females volunteered to participate in the study. Participants completed 6 visits to the laboratory: the first visit was a medical screening to ensure safety of the participants. For the second visit, participants completed a maximal treadmill exercise test. On the third visit, participants completed the Brunel Music Rating Inventory-2 to determine their preferred and non-preferred music genres, and to self-select the low, moderate and high intensity exercise speeds that would be used in the experimental trials. During the last three visits, participants completed each of the three (preferred, non-preferred, no music) randomized and counterbalanced experimental trials. The Physical Activity Enjoyment Scale and the Feeling Scale were used to measure baseline and post-exercise ratings of enjoyment and affective valence. During exercise, the single-item Attentional Focus Scale, Feeling Scale, Borg 6-20, and Exercise Enjoyment Scale were used to measure attentional focus, affective valence, perceived exertion, and enjoyment, respectively. Results revealed a main effect for condition for affective valence and enjoyment (p

Book Physiological Responses at the Rating of Perceived Exertion at and Above the Gas Exchange Threshold During Treadmill Running

Download or read book Physiological Responses at the Rating of Perceived Exertion at and Above the Gas Exchange Threshold During Treadmill Running written by Kristen C. Cochrane and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purposes of this study were to examine: 1) the metabolic, cardiovascular, respiratory, neuromuscular, and velocity responses during continuous, constant rating of .perceived exertion (RPE) runs at the RPE corresponding to the velocity at the gas exchange threshold (RPEGET) and 15% above GET (RPE GET+15%); and 2) the metabolic efficiency changes during continuous, constant RPE runs at RPEGET and RPEGET+15%. Eleven moderately trained runners performed an incremental treadmill test to exhaustion. GET and GET+15% were determined from the incremental test to exhaustion, and the velocity at GET and GET+15% were used to estimate the RPEGET and RPEGET+15% using linear regression. On separate days, subjects performed 60 min runs at RPEGET and RPEGET+15%, and physiological, neuromuscular, and perceptual responses were recorded. Polynomial regression analyses were used to examine the patterns of responses for all of the variables and paired-samples t-tests were used to determine changes in metabolic efficiency at RPEGET and RPEGET+15%. The results of the polynomial regression analyses indicated that there were negative, quadratic relationships (R2 = 0.96 -- 0.99) for V˙ O2, RER, V˙ E, and velocity vs. time at RPEGET and RPEGET+15%; positive, quadratic relationships (R2 = 0.87 and 0.74) for Fb vs. time at RPEGET and RPEGET+15%; and positive, linear (r2 = 0.73), and no significant (r2 = 0.0) relationships for HR vs. time at RPEGET and RPEGET+15%, respectively. There were negative, linear relationships (r2 = 0.96 and 0.63) for VL and VM EMG RMS vs. time, and positive, linear relationships (r 2 = 0.72 and 0.40) for VL and VM EMG MPF vs. time at RPEGET. In addition, there was a negative, linear relationship (r2 = 0.16) for VL EMG RMS vs. time, a positive, quadratic relationship (R2 = 0.74) for VM EMG RMS vs. time, and positive, quadratic relationships (R 2 = 0.73 and 0.96) for VL and VM EMG MPF vs. time at RPEGET+15% . There were decreases in metabolic efficiency at RPEGET and RPEGET+15%. These findings indicated that the only variable that tracked RPE was the normalized, composite HR vs. time response at RPE GET+15%, and that treadmill running at RPEGET and RPE GET+15% was sustainable for up to 60 min.

Book Individuality in music performance

Download or read book Individuality in music performance written by Bruno Gingras and published by Frontiers E-books. This book was released on 2014-10-22 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humans are remarkably adept at identifying individuals on the basis of their facial features, or other traits such as gait or vocal timbre. Besides voice, another auditory medium capable of carrying identity information is music. Indeed, certain famous musicians, such as John Coltrane or Sonny Rollins, need only to play a few notes to be unequivocally recognized. Along with emotion and structural cues, artistic individuality seems to be a key element communicated in music performance. Yet, the means by which individuality is expressed in performance, as well as the cognitive processes employed by listeners to perceive identity cues, remain poorly elucidated. Other pertinent issues, including the connection between a performer’s technical competence and ability to convey a specific musical identity, as well as potential links between individuality and career-defining outcomes such as critical recognition and aesthetic appraisal, warrant further exploration. Quantitative approaches to the study of music performance have benefited greatly from MIDI technology and the application of computational methods, leading to the flourishing of empirical music performance research over the last few decades. More recently, neuroimaging techniques have provided valuable insights into the neural mechanisms involved in the cognitive processes of performing music. Nevertheless, this field continues to benefit greatly from qualitative approaches, given that the communication of affect and identity cues in music performance leads to a rich subjectivity of impressions that must be accounted for in order to lead to a greater understanding of this multifaceted phenomenon. The aim of this Research Topic is to provide a forum for interdisciplinary research broadly related to the expression and perception of individuality in music performance. Research methodology includes behavioral, psychophysiological, and neuroimaging techniques. Both quantitative and qualitative approaches are presented The scope of this Research Topic includes laboratory studies as well as studies in real-life performance settings and longitudinal studies on performers.

Book Physiological Responses at the Critical Heart Rate During Treadmill Running

Download or read book Physiological Responses at the Critical Heart Rate During Treadmill Running written by Haley C. Bergstrom and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purposes of this study were to: 1) determine if the critical heart rate (CHR) model for cycle ergometry can be applied to treadmill running; and 2) examine the times to exhaustion (Tlim) as well as the VO2, ratings of perceived exertion (RPE), electromyographic amplitude (EMG AMP) and mean power frequency (MPF) responses during constant heart rate (HR) runs at CHR-5 b˙min-1 (CHR-5), CHR, and CHR+5 b˙min-1 (CHR+5). Thirteen runners performed an incremental treadmill test to exhaustion. On separate days, 4 constant velocity runs to exhaustion were performed. The total number of heart beats (HBlim) for each velocity was calculated as the product of the average 5 s HR and Tlim. The CHR was the slope coefficient of the HBlim versus Tlim relationship. The physiological responses were recorded during the constant HR runs. Polynomial regression analyses were used to examine the patterns of responses for all. The HBlim versus Tlim relationship (r2 = 0.995 - 1.000) was described by the linear equation: HBlim = a + CHR (Tlim). The CHR-5 (mean +/- SD = 171 +/- 8 b˙min-1, 88 +/- 3% HRpeak), CHR (175 +/- 8 b 8 b˙min-1 , 91 +/- 3% HRpeak), and CHR+5 (178 +/- 6 b˙min -1, 94 +/- 3% HRpeak) were maintained for 56.97 +/- 1.23, 48.37 +/- 11.04, and 20.11 +/- 16.08 min, respectively. There was no change in HR, quadratic decreases in velocity and VO 2, and quadratic or linear increase in RPE during continuous runs at a constant HR. At CHR-5, EMG AMP decreased and EMG MPF increased. There was an increase in EMG AMP and no change in EMG MPF at CHR, while there was no change in EMG AMP and EMG MPF decreased at CHR+5. These findings indicated the CHR model for cycle ergometry was applicable to treadmill running, and, on average, HR values that were less than or equal to the CHR, represented sustainable (30 to 60 min) intensities, while CHR+5 did not.

Book Effects of Two Different Auditory Stimuli on Perceptual and Metabolic Responses During Submaximal Treadmill Running

Download or read book Effects of Two Different Auditory Stimuli on Perceptual and Metabolic Responses During Submaximal Treadmill Running written by Tiev Bartok Miller and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose . The purpose of the study was to determine if two different forms of auditory stimuli, preferred music (PM) and subject selected audio books (AB), would exhibit differential effects on RPE and enjoyment ratings during continuous bouts of aerobic exercise. Methods . 20 subjects (10 males, 10 females) were randomized to PM and AB exercise conditions on non-consecutive days. Conclusion . Based upon the findings of the study, it is evident that different situational factors introduced during exercise, in this case PM and AB auditory stimuli, have significantly different effects on RPE, enjoyment, and various physiological parameters in apparently healthy young adult males and females. This finding maybe useful in developing strategies for promoting greater adherence to structured exercise programs in overweight, obese, and highly sedentary populations at risk for chronic health problems.

Book The Routledge Companion to Embodied Music Interaction

Download or read book The Routledge Companion to Embodied Music Interaction written by Micheline Lesaffre and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-09-19 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Companion to Embodied Music Interaction captures a new paradigm in the study of music interaction, as a wave of recent research focuses on the role of the human body in musical experiences. This volume brings together a broad collection of work that explores all aspects of this new approach to understanding how we interact with music, addressing the issues that have roused the curiosities of scientists for ages: to understand the complex and multi-faceted way in which music manifests itself not just as sound but also as a variety of cultural styles, not just as experience but also as awareness of that experience. With contributions from an interdisciplinary and international array of scholars, including both empirical and theoretical perspectives, the Companion explores an equally impressive array of topics, including: Dynamical music interaction theories and concepts Expressive gestural interaction Social music interaction Sociological and anthropological approaches Empowering health and well-being Modeling music interaction Music-based interaction technologies and applications This book is a vital resource for anyone seeking to understand human interaction with music from an embodied perspective.

Book Sensing Emotions

Download or read book Sensing Emotions written by Joyce Westerink and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-07-28 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors of this book analyze the influence of specific everyday life situations and contexts on the emotional state of people and the ways in which this can impact measurements of user experience. The book anticipates a future in which products and machines know how we feel and adapt to the feelings they sense (music systems that effectively enhance our current mood with a personalized choice of music, computer dialogues that avoid upcoming frustration, and photo cameras that take pictures whenever we're excited). In all these situations, knowledge of the emotional state of the user is prime information. A previous book published in the Philips Research Book Series, "Probing Experience", illustrated ways to evaluate the user experience through behavioural and physiological parameters. The present book focuses on the influence of context in these measurements. The everyday-life contexts of future products and machines will be always specific, especially in comparison to the standard laboratory situation. Context can impact the experience measurements and influence the occurrence and characteristics of certain signals. On the other hand, independent knowledge of the context could be very valuable for the interpretation of experience measurements. This book provides an overview of the present knowledge on the impact of context, and advocates the need for a joint understanding of its role in the measurement of experience. The authors comprise many experienced researchers on this topic with a wide variety of backgrounds, including business and academia, covering a broad range of context situations.

Book The Effects of Self Selected Vs Researcher Selected Music on Psychological  Physiological and Performance Outcomes During a Running Task

Download or read book The Effects of Self Selected Vs Researcher Selected Music on Psychological Physiological and Performance Outcomes During a Running Task written by Jermel Pierre and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study examined the effects of self-selected versus researcher-selected music on psychological, physiological and performance variables during a treadmill running task. Male and female participants (n = 30) performed a 30-minute treadmill run to their own self-selected music, researcher-selected motivational music and a no-music condition. Participants were assessed on intrinsic motivation, enjoyment, RPE, distance and heart rate. A series of repeated measures ANOVAs were used to analyse the data. Results indicated that following listening to their self-selected music, participants reported being more intrinsically motivated, more enjoyment, greater rating of perceived exertion and greater distance run. This study suggest that self-selected music may be an avenue to helping individuals overcome barriers to physical activity such as intrinsic motivation and enjoyment to help promote greater physical activity participation and adherence.
