Effect of relaxing music for recovery after a psychologically stressful task To investigate auditory spatial and non
-spatial short-
term
memory
(STM)
Impact of emotional deficits on implicit and explicit memory
Different brain activation in musicians and non
-musicians
Recordings:
Relaxing
music
excerpts from Enya, Vangelis and Yanni
via loudspeakers
CR: Western popular Bird songs
CR: Nature
Novel but conventional melodies
(SNI)

24 francophone male university students. Measurement of salivary cortisol before and after stressful task
Patients: 9 had undergone right, 10 h
ad undergone left
temporal lobe resection.
Two tasks: 1) Auditory object discrimination: same or different? 2)
Location
discrimination:
Identical or
different?
10 AD patients, 10 depressed patients, 16 controls.
1) Study phase: Presentation of melodies 1, 5 or 10 times. 2) Preference task
3) Recognition task
10 musicians, 10 non
musicians.
Sparse fMRI during
pitch
memory task: same or different?
Difference between music listening and silence during recovery period
Difference
be
tween p
atients
with left and right temporal lobe removal
Differences between
Alz
heimer’s disease patients
and elderly depressed patients
Localization of brain activation
Cortisol
in the saliva
decreased more rapidly
in
subjects exposed to music
Right temporal
lesions:
impaired object discrimination.
Left temporal lesions: impaired location discrimination
Impaired recognition in Alzheimer patients.
Impaired emotional processing of positive stimuli in depressed patients
Musicians: greater right posterior
temporal activat
ion.
Non
-musicians: greater
activation of left secon
dary
auditory cortex
Explicit memory:
Memory in which there is a need for conscious recollection in order to recall something.
By contrast, in
implicit memory
there is a lack of conscious awareness in the act of recollection.
Priming
is an
implicit memory
effect: Exposure to a
stimulus
influences response to a subsequent stimulus
