Abstract

Music-based interventions have been widely explored as non-invasive approaches to emotional regulation and anxiety reduction. Within this context, alternative tuning frequencies—particularly 432 Hz and 528 Hz—are frequently used in therapeutic and wellness practices and are often claimed to exert distinct psychophysiological effects. However, empirical evidence supporting differential neural responses to these frequencies remains limited, and existing claims are rarely grounded in direct measurements of brain activity. This study aimed to empirically examine whether music tuned to 432 Hz and 528 Hz produces differential effects on neural oscillatory activity, as measured by brainwave patterns, with particular attention to indicators associated with relaxation and meditative states. A quantitative repeated-measures design was implemented. Ten undergraduate music education students (aged 19–21 years) from the Indonesian Institute of the Arts (ISI) Yogyakarta participated. Each participant listened to the same musical composition presented in two tuning conditions (432 Hz and 528 Hz) in counterbalanced order. Neural activity was recorded using a single-channel EEG device (Neurosky MindWave), which provides spectral estimates of canonical brainwave bands. Delta-band amplitude was selected a priori as the primary outcome measure. Differences between tuning conditions were analyzed using paired-sample t-tests, supplemented by bootstrapping to address the small sample size. Both tuning conditions elicited increased delta-band dominance during music listening. However, no statistically significant difference in delta-band amplitude was observed between the 432 Hz and 528 Hz conditions (t(9) = −1.29, p = 0.229). Bootstrapped confidence intervals corroborated the absence of a reliable frequency-dependent effect. Under controlled within-subject conditions and using single-channel EEG-derived spectral estimates, no evidence was found for differential modulation of delta-band activity between music tuned to 432 Hz and 528 Hz. The results suggest that neural responses are more strongly driven by general musical engagement than by tuning frequency per se. Methodologically, the study highlights both the utility and limitations of low-density EEG for probing music-related neural oscillations and supports the need for future work employing higher spatial resolution EEG, baseline-corrected spectral analyses, and larger samples to test frequency-specific hypotheses with greater sensitivity.

Abstract

This study examined the effects of personalized speech and melodic stimuli on brain activity in 19 children using a within-subject quasi-experimental design and single-channel EEG. Participants listened to prosodic sentences and isomorphic melodies mimicking prosodic features. Gamma, alpha, and theta activity were compared across conditions. No significant differences were found in alpha (Z = −0.322, p = 0.748) or theta (Z = −1.328, p = 0.184), while gamma activity was significantly lower during melody than prosody (Z = −2.133, p = 0.033, r = 0.49). The findings suggest partially overlapping neural processing of speech and music, with higher gamma activity during prosody indicating greater demands for integrating acoustic and linguistic information.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh binaural beats alfa terhadap dimensi kecemasan somatik proksimal pada Music Performance Anxiety (MPA) mahasiswa Program Studi Penyajian Musik Institut Seni Indonesia Yogyakarta. Penelitian menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan desain pra-eksperimental one group pre-test post-test dengan repeated measurement. Sampel penelitian berjumlah 12 mahasiswa semester VI yang sedang menempuh mata kuliah Resital II dan dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Intervensi berupa binaural beats alfa 10 Hz diberikan selama 20 menit menggunakan aplikasi Expand dengan teknologi Hemi-Sync®. Tingkat kecemasan diukur menggunakan Kenny Music Performance Anxiety Inventory (K-MPAI) dengan fokus pada dimensi proximal somatic anxiety. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pada kondisi baseline tidak terdapat perbedaan signifikan antara skor sebelum dan sesudah performa tanpa intervensi (p = 0,754). Pada kondisi intervensi, rata-rata skor kecemasan menurun dari 47,00 menjadi 40,42 setelah pemberian binaural beats alfa, namun hasil uji Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test menunjukkan bahwa penurunan tersebut tidak signifikan secara statistik (p = 0,350). Dengan demikian, pemberian binaural beats alfa tidak memberikan pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap penurunan dimensi kecemasan somatik proksimal pada Music Performance Anxiety mahasiswa Program Studi Penyajian Musik Institut Seni Indonesia Yogyakarta, meskipun terjadi kecenderungan penurunan rata-rata skor kecemasan setelah intervensi.Kata kunci : binaural beats alfa; music performance anxiety; kecemasan performa musik; mahasiswa musikThe Effect of Alpha Binaural Beats on Music Performance Anxiety Among Music StudentsThis study aimed to examine the effect of alpha binaural beats on the proximal somatic anxiety dimension of Music Performance Anxiety (MPA) among students of the Music Performance Study Program at the Indonesian Institute of the Arts Yogyakarta. A quantitative approach was employed using a pre-experimental one-group pre-test post-test design with repeated measurements. The sample consisted of 12 sixth-semester students enrolled in the Recital II course, selected through purposive sampling. The intervention involved listening to 10 Hz alpha binaural beats for 20 minutes using the Expand application with Hemi-Sync® technology. Anxiety levels were assessed using the Kenny Music Performance Anxiety Inventory (K-MPAI), focusing on the proximal somatic anxiety dimension. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The results showed no significant difference between anxiety scores before and after performance in the baseline condition without intervention (p = 0.754). In the intervention condition, the mean anxiety score decreased from 47.00 to 40.42 after exposure to alpha binaural beats; however, the reduction was not statistically significant (p = 0.350). These findings indicate that alpha binaural beats did not produce a significant effect on reducing proximal somatic anxiety associated with Music Performance Anxiety among music students. Nevertheless, the observed decrease in mean anxiety scores suggests a potential benefit that warrants further investigation using larger sample sizes and more rigorous research designs.Keywords: alpha binaural beats; music performance anxiety; music students; performance anxiety; proximal somatic anxiety
