In previous studies, music has been shown to increase running performance and enhance positive emotions. Moreover, several studies indicated that listening to music could affect autonomic control. Previous research reported that there is an association between the autonomic control and emotional response, and that the better the autonomic control, the better the emotional response regulation. However, studies that investigated the effects of music on autonomic control and emotional response during exercise are scarce.
Purpose：The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of music on autonomic control and emotional response during exercise.
Methods： All of the participants completed one exercise test and two experimental conditions which included running with music and running without music in a randomly assigned order. In both experimental conditions, participants were running at an intensity of 70% heart rate reserve. Feeling Scale (FS) and Felt Arousal Scale (FAS) were used to evaluate emotional response during running. Heart rate variability (HRV) was measured before and after running to assess the effects of music on cardiac autonomic control.
Results：HRV decreased significantly after both running with music and without music conditions. There was no significant difference between the two conditions in HRV changes. The FS scores of the running with music condition were significantly higher at 3 min, 6 min, 12 min, and 15 min (all p<0.05) as compared to the running without music condition. The FAS scores of the running with music condition were significantly lower at 9 min, 12 min, and 15 min (both p<0.05) as compared to the running without music condition.
