Download or read book The Psychological Effect of Self selected Music on Exercise Enjoyment and Perceived Exertion During a Maximum Graded Exercise Test written by Blake J. Vostrirancky and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this study was to see if music had any influence on subjective perception of exercise at different stages of intensity during a maximum graded exercise test. Experimenter-selected music and subject's self-selected music was additionally examined to assess any significant differences in exercise exertion perception and enjoyment. Subjects exercised to three conditions while performing a maximum graded exercise test on a treadmill. The three conditions were experimenter-selected music, self-selected music, and a control of no music. Borg's Rating of Perceived Exertion along with other subjective exercise variables were obtained during data collection. Results showed that there was a difference in preference to the music selection. Subject's overwhelmingly preferred their own songs to the experimenter-selected songs, which contributed to a distinct separation of music conditions. However, this did not yield any significant results in perceived exertion levels or exercise enjoyment. This study showed that when subjects perform a mzximum graded exercise test, music has no effect on ratings of perceived exertion, exercise enjoyment, or post exercise feelings.

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.

Book The Effects of Self selected Music on Time to Exhaustion and Rate of Perceived Exertion in Female and Male Runners

Download or read book The Effects of Self selected Music on Time to Exhaustion and Rate of Perceived Exertion in Female and Male Runners written by Tammy Burden and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine if listening to self selected music while running on a treadmill would have an effect on time to exhaustion and RPE in male and female runners. SUBJECTS: Seventeen volunteers, 6 males (x age = 25.7 + 4.0) and 11 females (x age = 21.7 + 1.3) between the ages of 18 and 35 participated in this study. Subjects had no lower extremity injury with in the last 6 months, ran 6 miles a week, and had treadmill experience. METHODS: Subjects were randomly assigned to either the music or no music test condition. All subjects were tested under both conditions three days apart. The test began with a 2 minute warm-up at 3 mph and 0% grade. The speed was increased 1 mph each minute until 80% - 85% of maximal predicted heart rate was reached. Time recording and music began when the subject maintained this heart rate for 21 seconds. The speed remained constant. RPE was recorded at one minute intervals until volitional exhaustion was reached. A 2-5 minute cool down at 3 mph and 0% grade was performed when volitional exhaustion was reached. ANALYSIS: A repeated measures ANOVA revealed a significant increase in RPE level. A Fisher Protected t LSD multiple comparisons revealed that RPE scores significantly increased throughout the test. No significant difference was found between gender and RPE level. A second ANOVA revealed significantly longer times to exhaustion when subjects ran with music than without music. No significant difference was found between male and female subjects with respect to time to exhaustion. CONCLUSION: Listening to self selected music while exercising prolongs a subject's time to exhaustion. Self selected music has no effect on RPE values reported by male and female subjects. Using music in clinical settings may increase motivation and performance.

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 How Do Emotions and Feelings Regulate Physical Activity

Download or read book How Do Emotions and Feelings Regulate Physical Activity written by Darko Jekauc and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Up to date the scientific discussion about how frequency and regularity of physical activity can be increased is dominated by social-cognitive models. However, increasing evidence suggests that emotions and feelings have greater influence on physical activity than originally assumed (Rhodes, Fiala, & Conner, 2009). Generally speaking, humans possess an evaluative system with a basic action tendency to approach pleasurable events and to avoid aversive ones (Cacioppo & Berntson, 1999). Evaluative responses to a behavior and associated emotional states may influence a decision regarding whether or not to repeat being physically active. Generally, behavior associated with positive evaluations has a higher probability of being repeated than behaviors without such an association. On the contrary, an association with negative evaluations tends to decrease the probability of repeating to be physically active. Hence, evaluative responses to physical activity or the related situation can be an important aspect in the process of physical activity maintenance (McAuley et al., 2007). Several social-cognitive models of behavior change and maintenance were recently extended to take the influence of affective responses into account, in a way that variables already included in the models (e.g. outcome expectancies or attitudes) were more clearly articulated into their cognitive and affective components. For example, with regard to Social Cognitive Theory, Gellert, Ziegelmann and Schwarzer (2012) proposed to distinguish between affective and health-related outcome expectancies, and in the Theory of Planned Behavior, researchers suggested to differentiate between cognitive and affective attitudes (Lawton, Conner, & McEachan, 2009). The results of these and other studies suggest that affective components make a unique contribution to the explanation of the physical activity behavior (Brand, 2006). Other examples come from social cognition research, where it was shown that automatic evaluative responses are part of our everyday life and that they decisively influence health behavior (Hofmann, Friese, & Wiers, 2008). Accordingly, there is evidence that people who exercise regulary hold more positive automatic evaluations with exercise than non-exercisers (Bluemke, Brand, Schweizer, & Kahlert, 2010). Although significant progress has been made in showing that evaluative responses to physical activity and associated emotional states are important predictors of physical activity underlying psychological processes are far from being fully understood. Some important issues still remain to be resolved. Which role play affective states compared to concrete emotions when influencing physical activity? How do affective states and emotions interact with cognitive variables such as intentions? Are evaluative processes before, during or after physical activity important to predict future physical activity? Do negative and positive evaluations interact antagonistically or rather synergistically when physical activity as a new behavior shall be adopted? Future research will help us to resolve these and a lot of other so far unresolved issues.

Download or read book The Influence of Music and Music Video on Self selected Exercise Intenstiy and Psychophysiological Variables written by Jessica E. Ballister and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: The study was designed to explore the influence of music and music-video compared to control (silent) conditions on self-selected walking exercise intensity and psychophysiological responses (i.e., perceived exertion, attentional focus, affect, and heart rate). Aerobically trained female participants (N = 21, Mean age = 21.00 years, SD = 2.29) completed three 15 min self-paced walking trials under 3 separate conditions (i.e., music, musicvideo, and control/silent). Psychophysiological variables were measured at 5 min intervals during the task. Total distance was recorded at the end of each condition. Significant main effects of time were found for RPE and heart rate; both increased over time. Music-video promoted more positive affect and elevated heart rate when compared to control, and the highest level of dissociation. Musiconly was also found to promote improved affect, and more attentional dissociation and farther total distance than control. Music and music-video had a positive influence on psychophysiological responses, and music had a positive ergogenic influence on self-selected intensity during aerobic exercise.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Physical activity can benefit all individuals by increasing their physical, mental, and emotional health. Therefore, finding ways to increase physical activity is a popular area of research. Researchers have found that using dissociative attentional strategies is effective in increasing physical activity. According to research, when administered individually music and video (dissociative strategies) are both effective in decreasing an individual's perceived exertion and increasing performance at low to moderate intensity activity. However, at vigorous intensities the results are less consistent. The potential effects of music and video presented simultaneously have not been compared to the effects of either in isolation. The purpose of this study was to determine if there was a difference in attentional focus and perceived exertion during vigorous intensity exercise as a function of being exposed to music, video, both (music and video), or nothing. Results showed that at vigorous intensity, participants in the condition that received both music and video perceived significantly lower exertion (RPE) and has a significantly more dissociative focus than did participants in the other three conditions. There was no significant difference amongst the other conditions. It was concluded that even at vigorous intensity exercise, a participant could use music and video to enhance their use of dissociative strategies and to perceive less exertion. The result of perceiving less exertion could lead to increased exercise adherence, which could have important implications for public health."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.

Book The Effects of Music on Time Trail Performance

Download or read book The Effects of Music on Time Trail Performance written by Jana Hagen and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose: Exercise, particularly higher intensity or competitive exercise, depends on the interaction of a template or plan. This plan determines how to go about the exercise and feedback from the body determines how the exercise bout is affecting the body. In well-trained people the interaction between template and feedback is very sophisticated, and allows exercise performance to be optimized. The 'language', which the brain apparently speaks in terms of this template and feedback, can be understood in terms of Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE). Motivational music has generally been shown to augment exercise performance. The purpose of this study is to determine if motivation music, used as a strategy to manipulate the template-feedback system, during a cycle time trial, will change performance. Methods: (N=18) mean age= 27.6 +/- 8.7 well-trained cyclists performed two randomly assigned 10km cycle time trials, either listening to self-selected motivational music or control trial. A variety of performance markers (power output, HR, blood lactate, RPE) were monitored. Results: Self-selected motivation music had no affect on HR 174.1 +/- 11.3 and 171.8 +/- 10.4, power output 222 +/- 66 and 220 +/- 65, RPE 8.4 +/- 1.5 and 8.5 +/- 1.6, blood lactate 8.2 +/- 3.6 and 8.2 +/- 3.5 or time 17.75 +/- 2.1 and 17.81 +/- 2.06 (p>.05). Conclusion: The results show no significant difference in time trial responses relative to the presence of music.
