“…Such theta activity has been reported in [23], [25] and such alpha is not discussed earlier. As the musical feature is a measure of the rhythmic complexity, our results are in line with previous findings that suggest heighted alpha activity due to increase in task demands [24], specifically while processing complex music [52], [53]. In another study of the ERPs elicited by short piano notes [54], the topographies of the ERPs revealed relevant brain responses in the central, posterior and occipital area along the scalp.…”

This study proposes a novel approach for the analysis of brain responses in the modality of ongoing EEG elicited by the naturalistic and continuous music stimulus. The 512-second long EEG data (recorded with 64 electrodes) are first decomposed into 64 components by independent component analysis (ICA) for each participant. Then, the spatial maps showing dipolar brain activity are selected in terms of the residual dipole variance through a single dipole model in brain imaging, and clustered into a pre-defined number (estimated by the minimum description length) of clusters. Subsequently, the temporal courses of the EEG theta and alpha oscillations of each component for each cluster are produced and correlated with the temporal courses of tonal and rhythmic features of the music. Using this approach, we found that the extracted temporal courses of the theta and alpha oscillations along central and occipital area of scalp in two of the selected clusters significantly correlated with the musical features representing progressions in the rhythmic content of the stimulus. We suggest that this demonstrates that with the proposed approach, we have managed to discover what kinds of brain responses were elicited when Manuscript a participant was listening continuously to the long piece of naturalistic music.

“…that larger samples would result in significant differences at the frontal electrodes as well. Although not as localized in the frontal regions as hypothesized, the absence of a clear difference between the hemispheres in emotion-related continuous EEG activity for the patient group is consistent with the previous findings for psychiatric patients [21].…”

“…It was predicted that impaired emotional processing in the patient group would also be revealed in different frontal lobe continuous EEG activity, perhaps in the form of diffuse hyperactivation (no clear difference between left and right frontal activation) as found by Guther et al [21].…”

“…These findings provide evidence that music is an effective and valid stimulus for exploring deficits in cortical representation of emotion, and that EEG analyses are an appropriate methodology for exploring these issues. Similarly, EEG studies are also an effective way to find underlying cortical processes related to emotion processing and have a history of use in the exploration of brain processes in schizophrenia [16,[18][19][20][21]. Findings most relevant to the current study are those showing a pattern of asymmetrical frontal EEG activity in relation to emotional valence.…”

Studies of patients with schizophrenia using facial affect recognition and voice discrimination tasks have identified emotional dysfunction as a prominent clinical feature. In the present study we examine whether emotion processing in patients is also impaired in a less explicitly social context -- continuous self-report of emotions during music using a two-dimensional (pleasantness X activation) emotion space. Electroencephalographic (EEG) activity was also recorded during this task since previous studies using EEG measures have found underlying cortical processes related to emotion. Twelve patients with schizophrenia and eleven controls listened to five 25-second songs. These songs included J.S. Bach‟s Invention #13 in A minor (BWV 784) (designated the original piece), and four computer-generated pieces of which two were designed to be similar to the original, and two were designed to be different. While no significant effects were found in the activation dimension of the self-report measures, the pattern of pleasantness ratings was significantly less differentiated among songs in the patient group than in controls. EEG asymmetry indices at frontal and central electrodes provided evidence of greater hemispheric activation asymmetry (with higher activation on the left) in controls than in patients, a difference that was significant at the central electrodes (C3 and C4). These findings indicate that individuals with schizophrenia interpret emotion-eliciting music differently than do controls, even in a relatively non-social setting, possibly because of less differentiated hemispheric representations.

“…Moreover, Günther et al (1991, using 8-13.5 Hz) showed that alpha increases with musical complexity in music listening in healthy controls (which is not seen in schizophrenic patients, interpreted to reflect cerebral 'hyperactivation' in this patient group), with stable test-retest results. Together, these studies indicate that alpha activity is seen during imagination of music, and increasing with both task demand (Cooper et al, 2003) and musical complexity (Ruiz et al, 2009;Günther et al, 1991), but also vary across participants in music listening. Without more information on the distributions, either could be explained by attentional mechanisms driven by either the task or the stimulus.…”
