“…Music has been shown to reduce individual stress by lowering physiological arousal, as evidenced by decreased levels of cortisol, heart rate, and mean arterial pressure (Kreutz et al, 2012;Linnemann et al, 2015). In this context, the integration of music with movement can be viewed as a more suitable intervention to enhance an individual's athletic performance (Zoormand, 2023).…”

Objectives: Prior research has explored the effects of engaging with real or virtual natural landscapes and listening to music during aerobic exercise on short-term affect, However, the specific differences in the improvement of short-term affect by different combinations of VR and music rhythm require further investigation. This study aims to explore the differential impact of distinct VR and music integration strategies on short-term affect, thereby informing future research directions and optimizing public fitness practices. Methods: This study recruited 132 valid subjects (mean age 24.0±0.9 years), with a gender distribution of 68 males and 64 females. Participants were randomly assigned to one of four groups: Visual-Music (V-M), Music-Visual (M-V), Visual-only (V), and Music-only (M). The exercise mode was 15 minutes of aerobic power cycling with 2 minutes of low-intensity power cycling intervals in the middle. After the exercise, the subjects were asked to sit and then performed either a VR intervention or a music intervention for 15 minutes. The collected indicators included blood pressure, positive/negative affect, and heart rate variability indicators (RMSSD, SDNN, LF/HF). Data analysis included descriptive statistics, repeated measures ANOVA, and multifactor ANOVA. The effect of different VR and Music combined with exercise interventions on the improvement of short-term affect was analyzed based on the effect size (ɳp2) and combined with the significance p-value. Results: Intra-group differences showed that DBP, positive affect, negative affect, SDNN, RMSSD indicators in V-M group were significantly different before and after the experiment (p<0.05), while SBP, positive affect, negative affect, SDNN, RMSSD, LF/HF indicators in M-V group were significantly different before and after the intervention (all p<0.05). Only SDNN and RMSSD indicators in group M had significant differences before and after the experiment (p<0.05), and only SBP and RMSSD indicators in group V had significant differences before and after the experiment (p<0.05). The difference between groups showed that compared with other short-term affect response indicators, only SDNN and LH/HF groups had a significant difference (p<0.05), and other indicators had a trend of improvement or positive promotion to a certain extent, but the statistical difference was not significant (p>0.05). In general, the improvement effect of the visual-auditory combined exercise on short-term affect was due to the single visual or auditory activity. Conclusion: Aerobic exercise with consistent intensity and the combined visual-auditory interventions (M-V and V-M) significantly improved blood pressure, and the short-term affect of physiological responses (LF/HF, SDNN, RMSSD), along with subjective affect measures, compared to other intervention groups.These findings suggest that incorporating VR and music with exercise can effectively enhance short-term affect, recommending an integrated approach to aerobic exercise and relaxation through music and visual exposure to natural environments.

“…Often, this facilitating effect results in the exercise subject producing higher than expected levels of endurance, strength, productivity, or power. In this sense, music can be considered as a more appropriate intervention to improve an individual’s motor performance ( Zoormand, 2023 ). With the development of cognitive neuroscience techniques in recent years, the study of brain mechanisms of music as a means of improving human affect has been further developed, humans have the ability to feel music, which not only affects individual physiological indicators, but also has a certain effect on psychological indicators such as affects and cognitive state ( Chair et al, 2021 ).…”

Objectives: A randomized controlled experimental design that combines exercise and music intervention was adopted in this study to verify whether this approach could help improve human affect. The differences in the effect of music listening on affective improvement were compared in four different periods: before, during, and after aerobic power cycling exercise and the whole exercise course.Method: A total of 140 subjects aged 19–30 years (average age: 23.6 years) were recruited and randomly divided into four music intervention groups, namely, the pre-exercise, during-exercise, post-exercise, and the whole-course groups. The subjects’ demographic and sociological variables and daily physical activities were collected using questionnaires. Individual factors, such as the subjects’ noise sensitivity, personality traits, and degree of learning burnout, were collected via scale scoring. A laboratory in Zhejiang Normal University was selected as the experimental site. The testing procedure can be summarized as follows. In a quiet environment, the subjects were asked to sit quietly for 5 min after completing a preparation work, and then they were informed to take a pre-test. The four subject groups wore headphones and completed 20 min of aerobic cycling (i.e., 7 min of moderate-intensity cycling [50%*HRR + RHR] + 6 min of low-intensity interval cycling [30%*HRR + RHR] + 7 min of moderate-intensity cycling [50%*HRR + RHR] after returning to a calm state (no less than 20 min) for post-testing. The affect improvement indicators (dependent variables) collected in the field included blood pressure (BP), positive/negative affect, and heart rate variability indicators (RMSSD, SDNN, and LF/HF).Results: 1) Significant differences were found in the participants’ systolic BP (SBP) indices and the effect of improvement of the positive affect during the exercise–music intervention among the four groups at different durations for the same exercise intensity (F = 2.379, p = 0.030, ɳp2 = 0.058; F = 2.451, p = 0.043, ɳp2 = 0.091). 2) Music intervention for individuals during exercise contribute more to the reduction of SBP than the other three time periods (F = 3.170, p = 0.047, ɳp2 = 0.068). Improvement in the participants’ negativity affective score was also better during exercise, and it was significantly different than the other three time periods (F = 5.516, p = 0.006, ɳp2 = 0.113). No significant differences were found in the improvement effects of the other effective indicators for the four periods.Conclusion: Exercise combined with music intervention has a facilitative effect on human affect improvement, and listening to music during exercise has a better impact on affective improvement than music interventions at the other periods. When people perform physical activities, listening to music during exercise positively affects the progress effect among them.
