“…However, unexpectedly, our study did not find any statistically significant relationship Additionally, various studies have assessed the extent to which music may be used to decrease anxiety of patients and their families. For example, a randomized pilot study by Belland et al (18) found that listening to music reduced anxiety among older adults in the ED. Similarly, Kilic et al (21) found that music therapy in the ED positively impacted patients' pain levels and anxiety.…”

It is very important to find ways to meet the needs of patients' family members and to control their anxiety. This study aims to identify the needs and anxiety levels of family members of critically-ill adult patients in emergency departments (ED). Methods: This descriptive study was conducted in the adult ED of a training and research hospital in Turkey. In order to collect data, we conducted face-to-face interviews with family members of critically-ill patients. The "Critical Care Family Needs Inventory-Emergency Department" (CCFNI-ED) and the "Spielberger State Trait Anxiety Inventory-State Scale" (STAI-S) were also used to identify the needs and the anxiety levels of the family members. Results: The average age of the participants was 40.81±13.32 years. Of the participants (n=172), 61.6% (n=106) were female. CCFNI-ED results showed that eight of the ten needs expressed by family members were related to communication. Overall anxiety level of the family members was 49.67%. Additionally, a statistically significant correlation was found between being female and STAI-S scores (t=2.41, p=0.01). 18.6% of family members expressed that their needs were unmet, while 29.1% of the participants stated that their needs were met. Conclusions: This study found no significant correlations between the scores obtained from STAI-S and CCFNI-ED. However, a statistically significant correlation was found between being female and STAI-S scores of relatives. Health professionals should take the higher anxiety levels of female family members into consideration, and they should pay attention to the needs of patients' relatives in order to manage their anxiety.

“…Listening to music is a safe and low‐cost method that positively affects the mood and physiological symptoms of both healthy individuals and patients with various physical conditions 3‐5 . Listening to music for about 10 to 30 minutes in a session significantly decreases the anxiety, depression, and stress levels of patients 6‐8 . In other studies on such issue, listening to music has been reported to reduce sleep problems, 9,10 reduce the severity of pain and increase patient satisfaction, 11 and lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure and heart rate 12 .…”

Aim: This quasi-experimental study aimed to assess the effect of executive music therapy (EMT) on the state and trait anxiety levels of patients with psychiatric disorders. Design and Methods: The study sample consisted of 64 patients who were hospitalized in a psychiatric ward in Giresun, Turkey between January and April 2019. Findings: This study showed that EMT decreased the state anxiety levels of inpatients with psychiatric disorders (P < .05). However, the treatment caused no effect on trait anxiety levels (P > .05). Practice implications: In line with these results, we recommend that EMT should be included in therapeutic nursing interventions in psychiatric ward.

“…Indeed, older care home residents who listened to personalized music for thirty minutes each day over three weeks reported less depressive and anxious symptoms (Costa et al, 2018). Likewise, among older adults visiting an emergency room, as well as persons with dementia or stroke, music listening was more beneficial compared to standard care (Belland, Rivera-Reyes, & Hwang, 2017;Kwak, Anderson, & Valuch, 2018;Särkämö, 2013) and audiobooks (Särkämö, 2008).…”

Biopsychological Effects of Social Participation on Aging: The Role of Identity-Affirming Music and the Arts

It is well-known that social participation contributes to health. Emerging evidence also suggests that musical and artistic groups uniquely promote emotional well-being, socialization, and engage multiple cognitive functions. In this regard, the intervening and preventative capacities of artistic social groups ought to be considered to a greater extent, especially in light of increased population aging. The present research examined three artistic interventions among complex-care patients, individuals with dementia, and their caregivers. Three larger studies were also conducted to determine associations among different social groups, social identities (e.g. artistic, sport, religious), and various well-being outcomes, and to explore the potential moderating role of genetic polymorphisms in the relationships between groups and health. In Study 1, complex-care patients who listened to personalized music playlists reported fewer negative emotions, increased life satisfaction, and greater self-esteem over time compared to controls. Among people living with dementia and their caregivers in Studies 2 and 3, an artistic reminiscence program and music-making intervention strengthened relationships between carers and their care recipients, encouraged socialization between group members, and supported wellbeing. Studies 4 and 5 further investigated differences across social group types and revealed that artistic and educational social groups explained the greatest amount of variation in depression, memory, and executive functioning compared to other social groups. Yet, in Study 6, for retirement home residents and students, social identification was more strongly correlated with well-being than social participation alone. Moreover, overall group identity was positively correlated with telomere length among older adults. Interestingly, there was a positive association between group memberships and perceived social status for homozygous carriers of an IGF-1 SNP (rs7136446). Among older and younger adults, there was also a positive BIOPSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF SOCIAL PARTICIPATION ON AGING III correlation between group identification and health among carriers of the BDNF Met allele (rs6265), and an inverse relationship between group identification and depressive symptoms among carriers of an FGF-2 SNP (rs1048201). Taken together, participating in social groups, notably those involving music or the arts, appeared to confer health benefits among older adults. Knowledge of these associations can be used to help personalize future social interventions for older adults with the aim of maximizing their benefits. Behind every study presented here is a story of new friendships, challenges, triumphs, and inspiration, backed by a large team of individuals without whom this research would not have been possible. At the forefront are my supervisors, Dr. Renate Ysseldyk and Dr. Hymie Anisman. They meticulously combed through every research proposal and study design that amounted to this body of work, of which I am very proud. Renate's comp...
