Abstract

Svrha ovog istraživanja je eksperimentirati s utjecajem glazbe na aktivnost ljudskog mozga i srca. Kao glazbena stimulacija se koristi Piano medicine®, glazba koja bi trebala dovesti do opuštenog stanja i koja je stvorena s pažljivo izabranim parametrima. Dodatno, bit će istražena korelacija između aktivnosti ljudskog mozga i srca. Definirane su tri hipoteze. Prve dvije su povezane prema sa specifičnom muzikom koja se koristi. Prema tim hipotezama, Piano medicine® bi trebala inicirati povećano generiranje alfa (i potencijalno delta i gama) moždanih valova, te smanjiti broj otkucaja srca. Treća hipoteza predlaže postojanje korelacije između aktivnosti ljudskog srca i mozga.
Za provjeru valjanosti hipoteze, definirana je eksperimentalna paradigma prema kojoj je provedeno deset mjerenja EEG i EKG signala koristeći hardver i softver-© BrainVision. Za procesiranje i analizu snimljenih signala kreirane su i korištene skripte u programskom okruženju Matlab®.

Abstract (english)

The purpose of this research is to experiment the music influence on the activity of the human brain and heart. As a music stimuli will be used Piano medicine®, music that should lead to relaxed state and created with carefully chosen parameters. Furthermore, the correlation between the human brain and heart’s activity will be experimented.
Three hypotheses are defined. The first two are related to the specific music used. According to them, Piano medicine® should initiate increased generation of alpha (and potentially delta and gamma) brain waves and decreased heart rate. The third hypothesis proposes existence of correlation between the human heart and brain’s activity.
For checking the validity of the hypotheses, an experimental paradigm is defined according to which ten measurements of EEG and ECG were conducted using the © BrainVision. For processing and analyzing the recorded signals, five scripts in Matlab® were written and used.
