In modern times there is increasing acceptance that music-based interventions are useful aids in the clinical treatment of a range neurological and psychiatric conditions, including helping to reduce perception pain. Indeed, belief music, whether listening or performing, can alter human pain experiences has long history, dating back ancient Greeks, its potential healing properties have been appreciated by indigenous cultures around world. The subjective experience acute chronic complex, influenced many intersecting physiological psychological factors, it therefore be expected impact music therapy on may vary from one situation another, person another. Where persists becomes chronic, aberrant central processing key feature associated with ongoing experience. Nonetheless, beneficial effects exposure relief reported across wide shown effective neonates, children adults. this comprehensive review we examine various neurochemical, factors underpin experience, potentially operate at levels – periphery, spinal cord, brainstem, limbic system multiple areas cerebral cortex. We discuss extent which these individually combination, influence how affects both quality intensity pain, noting remains controversy about respective roles diverse peripheral processes play Better understanding mechanisms underlie music’s together insights into should aid developing more synergistic approaches when combined treatments. ubiquitous nature also facilitates application therapeutic environment daily life, for individual social benefit.

Lights on music cognition: A systematic and critical review of fNIRS applications and future perspectives

Brain and Cognition, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 180, С. 106200 - 106200

Опубликована: Июнь 21, 2024

Research investigating the neural processes related to music perception and production constitutes a well-established field within cognitive neurosciences. While most neuroimaging tools have limitations in studying complexity of musical experiences, functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) represents promising, relatively new tool for both laboratory ecological settings, which is also suitable typical pathological populations across development. Here we systematically review fNIRS studies on cognition, highlighting prospects potentialities. We include an overview basic theory, together with brief comparison characteristics other tools. Fifty-nine meeting inclusion criteria (i.e., using as primary stimulus) are presented five thematic sections. Critical discussion methodology leads us propose guidelines good practices aiming robust signal analyses reproducibility. A continuously updated world map proposed, including information from criteria. It provides organized, accessible, updatable reference database, could serve catalyst future collaborations community. In conclusion, shows potential music, particularly contexts special populations, aligning current research priorities cognition.

From Perception to Pleasure

Oxford University Press eBooks, Год журнала: 2023, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Ноя. 23, 2023

Abstract How does perception of abstract tonal patterns—music—lead to the pleasure we experience from these sounds? The answer presented in this book is that music arises interactions between cortical loops enable processing sound patterns and subcortical circuits responsible for reward valuation. auditory cortex its ventral-stream connections encode acoustical features their relationships, maintain them working memory, form internal representations statistical which predictions are made about how evolve time. Disruption pathway leads amusia. dorsal stream allows sensory-motor transformations, production, metrical representation, leading when events will occur. These predictive processes play a central role creating expectancies musical transmitted dopaminergic system, where hedonic responses generated according well an event fits with predictions. linked balance predictability surprise patterns. perceptual systems anhedonia. Engagement system also related movement vocal cues, social factors, preference, emotion regulation.
