“…Music therapists work with many different types of trauma, across a broad range of populations including refugees (Dixon, 2002; Jones, Baker, & Day, 2004; Orth, 2001, 2005; Orth, Doorschodt, Verburgt, & Drozdek, 2004; Orth & Verburgt, 1998; Orth, Verburgt, van Nieuwenhuijzen, & Wijzenbeek, 2006; Tyler, 2002), people affected by war (Amir, 1998; Bensimon, Amir, & Wolf, 2008; Heidenreich, 2005; Hughes, 2000; Lang & McInerney, 2002; Pavlicevic, 2002), childhood sexual abuse, and complex trauma (Henderson, 1991; Hussey, Reed, Laymen, & Pasiali, 2008; Macintosh, 2003; Robarts, 2006; Strehlow, 2009; Volkman, 1993). Individual work with children features most prominently.…”

“…Individual work with children features most prominently. In contrast, most adult studies utilized a group setting, citing potential to address, and improve social interaction (Amir, 1998; Hussey et al ., 2008; MacIntosh, 2003; Orth, 2001, 2005; Orth et al ., 2004; Orth & Verburgt, 1998; Volkman, 1993). To date, only two studies have examined the use of music therapy to treat adult PTSD patients (Bensimon et al ., 2008; Orth et al ., 2006).…”

“…The interpretation that the observed spectral coherence may reflect mutual engagement may in part be supported by the fact that functional outcomes of music therapy often include children's ability to participate in turn-taking, maintain attention (Perry, 2003) and learn social reciprocity (Hussey et al, 2008). That music therapy affords a propitious setting for neural synchrony may be germane to the theoretical perspective that affective attunement between child and parent is musical and improvisational in nature (Lindstrøm et al, 2016).…”

Neurophysiological Synchrony Between Children With Severe Physical Disabilities and Their Parents During Music Therapy

Although physiological synchronization has been associated with the level of empathy in emotionally meaningful relationships, little is known about the interbrain synchrony between non-speaking children with severe disabilities and their familial caregivers. In a repeated measures observational study, we ascertained the degree of interbrain synchrony during music therapy in 10 child-parent dyads, where the children were non-speaking and living with severe motor impairments. Interbrain synchrony was quantified via measurements of spectral coherence and Granger causality between child and parent electroencephalographic (EEG) signals collected during ten 15-min music therapy sessions per dyad, where parents were present as non-participating, covert observers. Using cluster-based permutation tests, we found significant child-parent interbrain synchrony, manifesting most prominently across dyads in frontal brain regions within β and low γ frequencies. Specifically, significant dyadic coherence was observed contra-laterally, between child frontal right and parental frontal left regions at β and lower γ bands in empathy-related brain areas. Furthermore, significant Granger influences were detected bidirectionally (from child to parent and vice versa) in the same frequency bands. In all dyads, significant increases in session-specific coherence and Granger influences were observed over the time course of a music therapy session. The observed interbrain synchrony suggests a cognitive-emotional coupling during music therapy between child and parent that is responsive to change. These findings encourage further study of the socio-empathic capacity and interpersonal relationships formed between caregivers and non-speaking children with severe physical impairments.
