Modelling the relationships between emotional responses to, and musical content of, music therapy improvisations

2007

This article reports a study in which listeners were asked to provide continuous ratings of perceived emotional content of clinical music therapy improvisations. Participants were presented with 20 short excerpts of music therapy improvisations, and had to rate perceived activity, pleasantness and strength using a computer-based slider interface. A total of nine musical features relating to various aspects of the music (timing, register, dynamics, tonality, pulse clarity and sensory dissonance) were extracted from the excerpts, and relationships between these features and participants' emotion ratings were investigated. The data were analysed in three stages. First, inter-dimension correla…

Music for the Brain Across Life

2013

Music is highly a versatile and multifaceted form of art and communication that has been an essential part of human societies since their early days. During the past 20 years, neuroimaging studies have shown that music is a powerful stimulant also for the brain, engaging not just the auditory cortex but also a vast network of temporal, frontal, parietal, cerebellar, and limbic brain areas that govern auditory perception, syntactic and semantic processing, attention and memory, emotion and mood control, and motor skills. Especially regions in the right temporal and frontal cortices are needed for the accurate perception and production of music as abnormal neural development or acquired damag…

Predicting Music Therapy Clients’ Type of Mental Disorder Using Computational Feature Extraction and Statistical Modelling Techniques

2009

Background. Previous work has shown that improvisations produced by clients during clinical music therapy sessions are amenable to computational analysis. For example, it has been shown that the perception of emotion in such improvisations is related to certain musical features, such as note density, tonal clarity, and note velocity. Other work has identified relationships between an individual’s level of mental retardation and features such as amount of silence, integration of tempo with the therapist, and amount of dissonance. The present study further develops this work by attempting to predict music therapy clients’ type of mental disorder, as clinically diagnosed, from their improvisat…

Informal musical activities are linked to auditory discrimination and attention in 2-3-year-old children: an event-related potential study

2012

The relation between informal musical activities at home and electrophysiological indices of neural auditory change detection was investigated in 2-3-year-old children. Auditory event-related potentials were recorded in a multi-feature paradigm that included frequency, duration, intensity, direction, gap deviants and attention-catching novel sounds. Correlations were calculated between these responses and the amount of musical activity at home (i.e. musical play by the child and parental singing) reported by the parents. A higher overall amount of informal musical activity was associated with larger P3as elicited by the gap and duration deviants, and smaller late discriminative negativity r…

What Motivates Internet Users to Search for Asperger Syndrome and Autism on Google?

2020

Social campaigns are carried out to promote autism spectrum disorder (ASD) awareness, normalization, and visibility. The internet helps to shape perceptions of Asperger syndrome and autism. In fact, these campaigns often coincide with the increase in searches for both diagnoses on Google. We have two study objectives: to use Google Trends to identify the annual time points from 2015 to 2019 with the highest Google search traffic in Spain for the terms &ldquo

Expectations, experiences and attitudes of patients and primary care health professionals regarding online psychotherapeutic interventions for depres…

2013

Abstract Background In the year 2020, depression will cause the second highest amount of disability worldwide. One quarter of the population will suffer from depression symptoms at some point in their lives. Mental health services in Western countries are overburdened. Therefore, cost-effective interventions that do not involve mental health services, such as online psychotherapy programs, have been proposed. These programs demonstrate satisfactory outcomes, but the completion rate for patients is low. Health professionals’ attitudes towards this type of psychotherapy are more negative than the attitudes of depressed patients themselves. The aim of this study is to describe the profile of d…

Le point de vue des sujets formateurs confrontés au processus de professionnalisation. Itinéraires de trois formateurs en EPS.

2015

International audience; Confrontés à la professionnalisation du métier d'enseignant dans un nouveau contexte de masterisation, nous avons tenté d'identifier auprès de trois formateurs très impliqués, en référence à leur itinéraire professionnel, ce qui restait stable et ce qui évoluait dans les pratiques de formation en EPS. Les résultats sont présentés à partir de cinq analyseurs que sont le rapport au savoir, le rapport à la formation, le rapport à l'autre, le rapport à l'institution et le rapport à l'expérience antérieure. Selon la place que les sujets occupent dans l'institution et selon leur expérience professionnelle, le rapport à la professionnalisation évolue de manière plus ou moin…
