Similarly for physiological measurement, increased arousal as indicated by skin conductance and greater heart rate variability was observed among high state anxiety participants when they listened to TENG music with binaural beats. Further analyses on a segment of the sample revealed that these observations may be specific to participants who reported the highest state anxiety at the beginning of the session.
The current study revealed that participants who listened to TENG music with binaural beats reported lower state-anxiety compared to those who listened to the audiobook. All participants answered sociodemographic and psychologic questions before and after listening to the soundtracks. Of which, thirty-two participants underwent physiologic measurement they listened to TENG music with binaural beats (n=10), TENG music without binaural beats (n=12), or an audiobook (n=10).
One hundred and fifty-one university students participated in the study and were randomized to listen to TENG music with binaural beats (n=52), TENG music without binaural beats (n=52), or audiobook (n=47) for thirty minutes. We predicted that listening to TENG music with binaural beats leads to beneficial psychological and physiological changes compared to listening to the same piece of music without binaural beats or an audiobook. In the current study, musicians from the TENG Ensemble produced a novel audio track by incorporating a dynamic progression of binaural beats from theta to delta waves in instrumental music and the researchers investigated the effect of this music on psychological stress and physiological arousal. Binaural beats therapy is an emerging form of sound wave therapy with a range of reported psychological benefits.
