The influence of auditory background stimulation (Mozart's sonata K. 448) on visual brain activity

Evaluating the Effect of Mozart Music and White Noise on Electroencephalography Pattern toward Visual Memory

“…Condition and intensity level Task Analysis [25] Silent and listen to Mozart, 60 dB Visual oddball EEG signal [26] Listen to Mozart music and Brahms Hungarian, 60-70 dB Spatio-temporal rotation task EEG signal and test scores [27] Silent and listen to Mozart music (played normally and reversely) Attentional blink task [32] Silent and listen to Mozart music, 60-70 dB -EEG signal [32] Listen to Mozart (pre-music, during music, Post-music), 60-70 dB -EEG signal and heart rate variability [33] Silent, listening to Mozart music and Beethoven music -EEG signal Contribution 1: The effectiveness between of Mozart music and white noise on memory cognitive task are investigated in this study. The sound intensity is control at medium level (40 to 55 dB) which is safer for longterm exposing to sound especially for study activity.…”

“…Beta rhythm (13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30) is associated with the attention/concentration level, active thinking, focus on the outside world or solving concrete problems [51]. This study focused on the relative beta power for determining the attention/concentration and active thinking level of subjects during memorizing.…”

Improvement of Concentration of Numeracy by Mozart Effect

“…For example, college students who listened to Mozart's Sonata KV.448 scored 8 to 9 points higher on the IQ test than students who had listened to a relaxation tape or listened to no music at all [1,2]. In another recent study, students who solved a simple visual task while listening to Mozart's music displayed more coherent brain activity [3]. In particular, a paper [5] reported that the gamma wave component of brain activity was increased wile listening to Mozart's music.…”

“…One type of study for analyzing the effect of listening to music to characterize any improvement in performance is by exploring the Mozart effect [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. Mozart effect is a phenomenon that the task efficiency is upgraded if the subject listened to classic music Mozart composed.…”

Cross-modal visual–auditory–somatosensory integration in a multimodal object recognition task in humans

“…In Ref. [6], audiovisual interactions were investigated in visual illusory perception, and there have been studies on the effect of music on visual brain activity [7]. Reports on auditory-somatosensory interactions are rare [8], and we are not aware of studies on visual-somatosensory cross-modal integration.…”
