Read the detailed description
The purpose of the current study is to explore the effects of listening to 15-minutes of sonic augmented music on subjective feelings of calmness and autonomic state.
Specific Aims:
Specific Aim 1: To investigate whether pre-intervention measures of ANS reactivity relate to the overall functioning of the participants.
•The investigators will examine measures of autonomic reactivity to prior mental health and medical adversity, embodiment, and emotional and physical health.
Specific Aim 2: To identify the immediate effects of listening to the music
•The investigators will explore whether listening to the music leads to improvements in the functioning. First, the investigators will compare the participants who opted to leave after the brief music demonstration to the participants who stayed for the additional 15-minutes of music. Next, the investigators will focus on improvements following listening to the music.
Specific Aim 3: To identify individual characteristics that influence the effectiveness of listening to the music immediately
•The investigators will explore the impact of specific vulnerability and resiliency factors (e.g., prior mental and medical adversity) on how well participants benefit from listening to the music immediately.
Specific Aim 4: To investigate levels of oxytocin and HRV after listening to calming music.
•The investigators will explore whether listening to music leads to changes in physiological and emotional responses, focusing on oxytocin as a marker of stress response. Specifically, we will compare the levels of salivary oxytocin before and after the intervention in two groups: participants who listen to 15 minutes of the control theme and participants who listen to 15 minutes of the augmented theme. We will also measure heart rate (HR) using a wearable HR monitor to assess autonomic nervous system functioning and determine whether changes in HR are associated with changes in oxytocin levels following the music intervention. (Phase 2 only)
Experimental design
PHASE 1:
- Participation is limited to those attending the online workshop
- The participants will complete pre- and post-assessments that involve online measures.
- Music will be provided first in a brief music demo and then again in a 15-minute session.
- Between-subject analyses will compare those who listened only to the brief demo and withdrew participation against those who remained and listened to the 15-minutes of music to determine if those who listened to the 15-minutes of music exhibit greater improvements than those who did not. Within-subject analyses will determine the potential benefits of listening to the music for all participants.
PHASE 2:
- The participants will be randomly assigned to either the augmented music group or the control group featuring a Mahler composition.
- The control group will listen to 15 minutes of control music, and the augmented group will listen to 15 minutes of augmented music.
- At pre- and post-, the participants will complete online self-report surveys and provide 1.5mL of saliva.
- Heart rate data will be collected continuously for about 25 minutes. It will be collected for 5 minutes before and after the intervention, and for 15 minutes during the intervention. Markers will inserted to later separate the data into segments representing the 5 minutes before the music (baseline), time during the music, and 5 minutes after the administration of the music.
- Between-subject analyses will compare those who listened only to the augmented 15-minute music sample and those who listened to the control 15-minutes of music to determine if those who listened to the augmented music exhibit greater changes than those who did not. Subject analyses will determine the potential benefits of listening to music for all participants.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Augmented ThemeBehavioural
The music is augmented by embedding the natural rhythms of bodily functions (e.g. breathing, heart rate variability, vascular tone, etc) that signal the body to calm.
Mahler ThemeBehavioural
15-minutes of a Mahler composition.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Augmented Theme | Experimental | In phase 1:
Participants complete the pre-survey. After that, the participants will listen to a brief demo followed by the 15-minutes of augmented music. After completion of the music, the participants will complete the post-survey.
In phase 2:
Participants complete the pre-survey, and provide 1.5-2mL of saliva. Then, they will be equipped with a HR band (polar exercise band). After that, the participants in the augmented group will receive 15-minutes of augmented music. After completion of the music, Study Staff will have the participants provide 1.5-2mL of saliva and remove the HR belt. Following removal of the HR belt, the participants will complete the post-survey. Receives: Behavioral: Augmented Theme |
| Control Theme | Active comparator | In phase 2:
Participants complete the pre-survey, and provide 1.5-2mL of saliva. Then, they will be equipped with a HR band (polar exercise band). After that, the participants will receive 15-minutes of the control music. After completion of the music, Study Staff will have the participants provide 1.5-2mL of saliva and remove the HR belt. Following removal of the HR belt, the participants will complete the post-survey. Receives: Behavioral: Mahler Theme |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Assessing the Impact of Autonomic Reactivity using the Body Perceptions Inventory Short Form
This 20-item measure is scored on a 5-point Likert scale (never = 1, occasionally = 2, sometimes = 3, usually = 4, always = 5). Items are summed to determine total autonomic reactivity score, with the higher scores indicating greater autonomic reactivity
Measured: Baseline
Assessing the Impact of Adversity History on the Effectiveness of Listening to Music
This measure assesses the impact of six types of traumatic experiences (childhood adverse experiences, childhood maltreatment, intimate partner maltreatment, other person maltreatment, life-threatening situations, sudden losses, and person health situations). Each item is scored on a 5-point Likert scale (did not occur = 0, occurred and no impact on my life = 1 to big impact on my life = 4). Items are summed to determine total impact scores.
Measured: Baseline
Measuring Change in subjective feelings of calmness and autonomic state using the Benefits List
This 20-item measure, which assesses subjective feelings of calmness and autonomic state was created for this study.
Measured: From baseline through study completion, an average of 90 minutes
Assessing the Impact of anxiety on the Effectiveness of Listening to Music using the GAD-7
This 7-item measure assesses the severity of generalized anxiety symptoms. It is scored on a 4-point Likert scale (not at all = 0, several days = 1, more than half the days = 2, nearly every day = 3). The items are summed to calculate the total anxiety score, with higher scores indicating more severe anxiety symptoms.
Measured: Baseline
Assessing the Impact of depression on the Effectiveness of Listening to Music using the PHQ-8
This 8-item measure assesses the severity of depressive symptoms. It is scored on a 4-point Likert scale (not at all = 0, several days = 1, more than half the days = 2, nearly every day = 3). The items are summed to determine the total depression score, with higher scores indicating greater severity of depressive symptoms.
Measured: Baseline
Assessing the Impact of loneliness on the Effectiveness of Listening to Music using the UCLA Loneliness
This 20-item measure assesses how often a person feels disconnected from others. It is scored on a 4-point Likert scale (never = 1, rarely = 2, sometimes = 3, often = 4). The items are summed to calculate the total loneliness score, with higher scores indicating greater feelings of loneliness.
Measured: Baseline
Assessing the Impact of hostility on the Effectiveness of Listening to Music using the Cook-Medley
This 60-item measure assesses the level of hostility and negative affectivity. It is scored on a true/false format, where responses are recorded as 1 for "true" and 0 for "false." The items are summed to determine the total hostility score, with higher scores indicating greater levels of hostility.
Measured: Baseline
Assessing the Impact of cardiovascular risk on the Effectiveness of Listening to Music using the QRISK3
The QRISK3 is a risk assessment tool used to estimate the 10-year risk of developing cardiovascular disease. It is based on a variety of factors, including age, sex, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, smoking status, and medical history. The score is calculated using a point-based system, with higher scores indicating a higher risk of cardiovascular events. The result provides an estimated percentage of risk over the next 10 years.
