This research aims to explain the form and function of Badewo Kayangan as a healing ritual in the past and present for the people of Tebing Tinggi Okura. This research is qualitative research with a descriptive approach that understands the phenomenon of the research subject. The data in this research is information obtained through various sources, both sources obtained directly through interviews with sources who know about the Badewo Khayangan dance, video recordings, photographs, and data in the form of documentation. Apart from this data, it is also supported by data in the form of notes obtained during observations. The research findings are that Badewo Kayangan was originally a healing ritual used to cure various diseases, including those caused by supernatural forces in the Okura High Cliff area. As time went by, people began to ask Wak Damai to change Badewo Kayangan into the Badewo Kayangan dance. The movements contained in Badewo Kayangan are combined with new elements and realized in the form of a dance performance known as the Badewo Kayangan dance. Badewo Kayangan has two main roles, namely as a traditional healing ritual and as a means of performing arts or entertainment. By considering the potential of the Badewo Kayangan Tebing Tinggi Okura dance as a local cultural asset, this dance has the potential to become part of the tourism industry based on culture.

“…Neural correlates of metacognition (NCM), involving the lateral and medial prefrontal cortex (PFC), insula/inferior frontal gyrus (IFG), dorsal anterior cingulate cortex/pre-supplementary motor area (dACC/pre-SMA), precuneus, and ventral striatum, plays a pivotal role in various metacognition-related cognitive domains, including memory, perception, and decision-making ( Fleming and Dolan, 2012 ; Morales et al, 2018 ; Vaccaro and Fleming, 2018 ). The neural correlates of dance (NCD) involve brain regions that process the motor, cognitive, emotional, spatial, temporal, and bodily dimensions of dance during performance, perception, imagination, and creation ( Sevdalis and Keller, 2011 ; Bläsing et al, 2012 ; Karpati et al, 2015 ; Savrami, 2017 ; Basso et al, 2020 ; Zardi et al, 2021 ; Foster Vander Elst et al, 2023 ; Yang et al, 2023 ). NCD’s motor components, linked to dance-related motor learning, involve the motor cortices, premotor cortex, supplementary motor area (SMA), basal ganglia, and cerebellum ( Hänggi et al, 2010 ; Karpati et al, 2015 ; Li et al, 2015 ; Lu et al, 2018 ; Basso et al, 2020 ; Foster Vander Elst et al, 2023 ; Yang et al, 2023 ).…”

IntroductionDance education fosters embodied metacognition, enhancing student’s creativity. This study examines the crucial role of functional connectivity (FC) between the neural correlates of metacognition (NCM) and dance (NCD) as the neurological foundation for dancers’ embodied metacognition. The investigation also explores whether these consolidated FCs inform the general creativity in dancers.MethodsThe research involved 29 dancers and 28 non-dancer controls. The study examined resting-state connections of the NCM through seed-based FC analysis. Correlation analyses were employed to investigate the connections between the targeted NCM-NCD FCs, initiated from the a priori NCM seed, and general creativity.ResultsDancers demonstrated heightened FC between NCM and NCD compared to non-dancer controls. The targeted regions included the putamen, globus pallidus, posterior cerebellum, and anterior insula of NCD. The dancers exhibited higher originality scores. In dancers, the enhanced FC showed a negative correlation with originality and a positive correlation with flexibility. Conversely, the controls exhibited no significant correlations.DiscussionExtended dance training enhances the NCM-NCD connection signifying embodied metacognition. This interconnectedness may serve as the neural predisposition for fostering general creativity performance in dancers. Dancers with heightened levels of originality could leverage the relatively weaker NCM-NCD FCs to facilitate better integration and coordination of creative cognitive processes. Our findings suggest that the consolidated functional connections as sculpted by domain-specific training may inform general creativity.

“…To assess the PwPT's (patients with psychic trauma) musical aptitudes and perceptual abilities in relation to the sound stimuli to be used for bimodal therapy, we selected the Musical Aptitude and Acoustic Skills test (MAAS [33]). Previous experience with the MAAS test showed that listening to music is preferred in moments of leisure; that "cultured" listening genres (classical, jazz, blues) support serenity and relaxation [34]; that music is perceived as an important aid in improving mood while being a distractor during reading [35]; that melody and rhythm are perceived as fundamental elements of musical communication [36]; that actively seeking out pleasant music is important, while passive reception (subliminal listening, like piped music in shops) is experienced as annoying [37]. The MAAS test was initially applied for training and support purposes in the educational field, a context in which its effectiveness in drawing a picture of acoustic capabilities and musical preferences has been repeatedly validated, with ambisexual learners belonging to various developmental ages [38].…”

According to the WHO (World Health Organization), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an elective therapy to treat people with post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD). In line with the personalization of therapeutic strategies, through this pilot study, we assessed in people suffering from the effects of trauma the feasibility, safety, acceptance, and efficacy of EMDR enriched with sound stimulation (by administering neutral sounds synchronized with the guided bilateral alternating stimulation of the gaze) and musical reward (musical listening based on the patients’ predisposition and personal tastes). Feasibility, quantified by the number of patients who completed the treatment, was excellent as this was the case in 12 out of the 12 enrolled people with psychological trauma. Safety and acceptance, assessed by self-compiled questionnaires, were excellent, with an absence of side effects and high satisfaction. Efficacy, quantified by the number of EMDR treatment sessions required to reach the optimal scores on the Subjective Units of Disturbance (SUD) and Validity of Cognition (VOC) scales typical of EMDR protocols, revealed an average duration of 8.5 (SD 1.2) sessions, which is well below the 12 sessions considered a standard EMDR treatment duration. EMDR+ appears to be a relevant personalization of EMDR, particularly in music-sensitive people, consolidating the therapeutic alliance through a multisensory communicative bond for trauma treatment.
