Background: The aim of the study was to assess changes in motivation levels in the subjects who were provided with motivational music (independent variable). The additional aim was to establish differences between two study groups in terms of swimming effectiveness. Material/Methods: The employed research method relied on a laboratory experiment. The study included 8 subjects involved in swimming training. They were divided into two groups - control (C) and experimental (E) ones. The study consisted of three trials during which the subjects swam a distance of 50m front crawl with maximum velocity. In the first trial neither of the groups had an independent variable. In trials two and three group C swam the distance listening to white noise. Group E received motivational music of choice (independent variable). Before and after the trials the subjects’ motivation was assessed by means of the MOTO scale. Results: The motivation level assessed by means of the MOTO scale revealed no statistically significant differences in the groups. The Mann-Whitney U Test showed no statistically significant differences between the study groups in terms of their times over 50 m. Conclusions: Motivational music which the swimmers received when swimming had no impact on an increased level of the swimmers’ motivation and swimming effectiveness.

Listening to music can be useful for athletic performance because of the similarities between the rhythm of the music and the movements of the human body. Given the ambiguity in the lead for better music, the goal of this study was to investigate the effect of fast, light and favorite music on physiological function and physical performance of the male athlete students. 25 healthy male athlete students with the age of 20.8 ±1.20 years, height of 180.5 ±7.02 cm and weight of 70.8 ±10.9 kg participated in this study voluntarily. The present study was a repeated based test (4 times without music, fast, light and favorite music in 4 consecutive weeks with a one week rest apart them to control the effects of fatigue during the test). Results showed that fast music caused a significant changes in anaerobic power, sprint, agility, muscular endurance, aerobic power, rating of perceived exertion (RPE) (p < 0.05). Also, favorite music caused significant changes in explosive power and agility (p < 0.05). But, light music just made significant effect on minimum power (p < 0.05). According to this study, it seems that listening to fast music before aerobic and anaerobic activities can be effective on maximum and submaximal functions.

The theoretical concept of the use of music in daily life and its connection to mood regulation in terms of musical experience, describe people in terms of their individual differences. Considered in this context, the issues relate to the relationship between musical experience (according to the concept of P.D. Werner, 2006) and the use of mood regulation strategies (according to the idea R. Larsen, 2000) or the use of control strategies involving mood music (according to the concept of S. Saarikallio and J. Erkkilä, 2007). Citing the results of their study, lead author introduces the reader to the world of elementary operations empirical and wants to stimulate reflection on the issue of infiltration of human experience in the field of psychology to the complex world of music.

The question ‘Do psychopathology dimensions correlate with musical preferences in healthy individuals?’ still remains poorly investigated. Additionally, verbal working memory, psychopathology and music preferences have not been examined together. Participants consisted of ninety-three young women without a previous or current psychiatric diagnosis. All participants were examined with the Forward Digit Span Task, and completed a psychopathology symptom instrument along with a musical preferences question. Results revealed that the Global Score Index, Somatization, Hostility and Depression correlated in a statistically significant way with musical preferences in female adults. Hostility and Depression predicted classical music preferences. Depression, Obsessive/Compulsive, Somatization and Hostility predicted a pop preference, while Somatization and Psychoticism predicted a rock preference. No significant correlations were found between the above variables and verbal working memory, except for a significant correlation between age and the span of the working memory. Certain psychopathology dimensions do not influence cognition in the form of the verbal working memory in women, but can predict a specific choice of music genres. Findings suggest that music listening preferences may represent a field of inner experiences that could reveal easy-to-obtain information about the mental health of women who have not an official psychiatric diagnosis, but may be at risk of developing psychological problems due to high self-reported symptoms of psychopathology.

The two worlds of sport and art cannot be separated distinctly. Intersections can definitely be identified. Although the discipline “Sport-Art” has not yet been established as a sub-discipline of sport science, sporadic attempts of integration in higher education and academic discussion can be found. In the field of (fine) arts we meet sport in everyday life as so-called practical and commercial art. The fusion is also obvious in the fields of music, art history, and literature. The convergence of the two worlds is clearest in the structural analogy of the genesis of composition, performing arts, literature, and movement products. Finally, a pedagogical postulate is posited that should be understood as a demand for an (school) education that integrates art and sport.

During adolescence, related to the crisis of identity, attempts to separate from the family and rebellion against the reality result in the youth to be particularly susceptible to the impact of peers. Identification with the group is most often based on common interests, one of which being music. The aim of the pilot study was to assess the relationship of autodestructive and antisocial behaviour and music preferences of girls subject to inpatient stay due to mental problems. Material and methods: Own questionnaire was used concerning music preferences, consisting of the following genres: metal, rock, pop, jazz, hip-hop, reggae, film music, sung poetry, electronic music. The studied group comprised of 26 girls diagnosed with mood disorders, neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders, eating disorders and behavioural and emotional disorders according to ICD-10. Exclusion criteria were the remaining diagnostic categories, especially active psychotic process and mental retardation as well as lack of understanding of the questionnaire questions or not being familiar with basic types of music. Among the patients aged 13–18 subject to inpatient stay at the Department of Adolescent Psychiatry in Łódź in the period 2013–2014 and consented to the study, the incidence of attempted suicide, inflicting self-harm, alcohol abuse, taking psychoactive substances and the presence of antisocial disorders were assessed. Questionnaire verification was carried out in a group of 30 people tested with a test–retest method with a two-week break; reliability was obtained: 0.89–1. Analysis was carried out with the use of Statistica 9.1 programme. Results: Among the teenage girls subject to inpatient stay, music preferences were not related in a statistically significant manner (p > 0.05) with a greater incidence of attempted suicide, inflicting self-harm, alcohol abuse and contact with psychoactive substances, nor the psychiatric diagnosis. Conclusions: Girls subject to inpatient stay at the mental ward most often preferred hip-hop. No significant relationship of the preference over a particular music genre and the number of autodestructive and risky behaviour was observed; only tendencies for more frequent selection of particular genres of music were visible.

W okresie dojrzewania, związanym z kryzysem tożsamości, próby separacji od rodziny i bunt przeciwko zastanej rzeczywistości powodują, że młodzież jest szczególnie podatna na wpływy grupy rówieśniczej. Identyfikacja z grupą bazuje najczęściej na wspólnych zainteresowaniach, a jednym z nich jest muzyka. Celem badania wstępnego była ocena związku zachowań autodestrukcyjnych i aspołecznych z preferencjami muzycznymi dziewcząt hospitalizowanych psychiatrycznie. Materiał i metody: Wykorzystano autorską ankietę dotyczącą preferencji muzycznych, która obejmowała następujące podstawowe gatunki: metal, rock, pop, jazz, hip-hop, reggae, blues, muzyka filmowa, poezja śpiewana, muzyka elektroniczna. Grupę badaną stanowiło 26 dziewcząt z diagnozą zaburzeń nastroju, zaburzeń nerwicowych, związanych ze stresem i pod postacią somatyczną, zaburzeń odżywiania oraz zaburzeń zachowania i emocji według ICD-10. Kryteriami wykluczenia były pozostałe kategorie diagnostyczne, a zwłaszcza aktywny proces psychotyczny i upośledzenie umysłowe, jak również brak rozumienia pytań zawartych w kwestionariuszu lub nieznajomość podstawowych gatunków muzycznych. U 13–18-letnich pacjentek, które były hospitalizowane w Klinice Psychiatrii Młodzieżowej w Łodzi w latach 2013–2014 i wyraziły zgodę na badanie, oceniano występowanie prób samobójczych, dokonywanie samouszkodzeń, nadużywanie alkoholu, przyjmowanie substancji psychoaktywnych i obecność zaburzeń aspołecznych. Weryfikację kwestionariusza przeprowadzono w grupie 30 osób, które badano metodą test–retest w odstępie dwutygodniowym; uzyskano rzetelność 0,89–1. Analizę przeprowadzono za pomocą programu Statistica 9.1. Wyniki: Wśród hospitalizowanych nastolatek preferencje muzyczne nie wiązały się w sposób istotny statystycznie (p > 0,05) z większą częstością prób samobójczych, samouszkodzeń, nadużywania alkoholu i kontaktu z substancjami psychoaktywnymi ani z diagnozą psychiatryczną. Wnioski: Dziewczęta hospitalizowane psychiatrycznie najczęściej preferowały muzykę hip-hopową. Nie zaobserwowano istotnego związku między preferowaniem konkretnego gatunku muzycznego a większą liczbą zachowań autodestrukcyjnych i ryzykownych; widoczne były jedynie tendencje do częstszego wyboru określonych gatunków muzyki.

Wstęp. Słuchanie muzyki jest skutecznym sposobem na redukcję niepokoju, napięcia psychicznego i poprawę nastroju u ludzi, którzy często doświadczają zmartwień, czują się zagrożeni lub antycypują zagrożenia lub stresujące zdarzenia. Niewiele wiadomo o wpływie słuchania muzyki zarówno na biochemiczne jak i percepcyjne odpowiedzi na intensywny trening interwałowy wśród kobiet uprawiających sporty walki. Celem tego badania było sprawdzenie hipotezy, że słuchanie odpowiedniej muzyki podczas treningu obniża psychofizjologiczne markery stresu. Materiał i metody. 16 zawodniczek boksu, seniorek wzięło udział w dwóch 1-godzinnych intensywnych sesjach treningowych oddzielonych od siebie 3 dniami. Sesje miały te same struktury, intensywności i obciążenia. Sportowcy zostali przydzieleni do dwóch równych podgrup i wykonywali jedną sesję ze specjalnie wybraną muzyką taneczną (MS) i jedną bez niej (nie-MS). Próbki krwi kapilarnej pobrano bezpośrednio przed i po treningu. W próbkach osocza oznaczono kortyzol (C), glukozę (Glu), a we krwi mleczan (LA). 10-punktowa skala została wykorzystana do samodzielnej oceny odczuwanego wysiłku (RPE). Wyniki. Kiedy sesji treningowej towarzyszyła muzyka, przyrosty C i Glu i po wysiłkowe wartości RPE były znacząco niższe. Wpływ muzyki na LA nie był statystycznie istotny. Wnioski.. Obniżona reaktywność markerów stresu wysiłkowego, takich jak poziom C, Glu i wyniki RPE w odpowiedzi na trening z preferowaną muzyką potwierdziła korzystny wpływ używania muzyki u zawodniczek wykonujących intensywny trening. Zmniejszenie psychologicznego składnika stresu wysiłkowego może poprawić tolerancję treningu.

Background. Music listening is a helpful way for reduction of psychological tension state anxiety, and improvement of mood state in humans, who often experience worries, threats or anticipating stressful events. Few is known about effect of music listening on both biochemical and perceptual responses to high intensity interval training session among females practicing combat sports. The purpose of this study was to verify hypothesis that listening music during training lowers psycho-physiological stress markers. Material and methods. 16 female boxers took part in two 1-hour high intensive interval training separated 3 day apart. These sessions were of the same structures, loads, intensities. Athletes were assigned into two equal sub-groups and performed sessions with special selected dance music (MS) and without it (non-MS) Capillary blood samples were taken directly before and after training. Plasma cortisol (C), glucose (Glu) and blood lactate (LA) were determined in the samples.10-point scale was used for self-reported Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE). Results. When the training session was accompanied music, the post-session increments of C and Glu and post-session RPE were significantly lower. The impact of music on LA was not statistically significant. Conclusions. The lowered reactivity of markers of exercise stress such as C, Glu levels and RPE scores in response to training with preferred music confirmed beneficial effect of music use in female athletes performing an intensive workout. This reduction of psychological component of exercise stress may improve a training tolerance.

Showing the possibility of physical exercises performed to the music with enhanced high frequencies and vibration devices enabling “bone hearing”, in the process of stimulating development at the level of coordination abilities of children with hearing disability. This paper is report of a pilot study. Twenty five children with hearing impairment aged 10 to 13 years participated in the experiment. The subjects were randomly assigned to experimental (E) and control (C) group. The control group attended traditional dancing classes using their every day hearing aids. Audiva High Pitch Training System was used in the classes of Group E. The system consists of headphones connected with a vibration transmitter, which enables the subject to experience “bone hearing”. The device used in the experiment strengthens high frequency tones in music, most of which are not audible to people with hearing disability. Classes were held once a week in Poznan Educational Centre for Deaf Children. The evaluation of the coordination abilities’ level was conducted twice - before and after the dancing classes. The level of coordination was assessed using the Kiphard Schilling Test of Coordination (KSTC). Mann-Whitney’s U Test and Wilcoxon’s Test were used to assess changes in coordination capacity.Preliminary analysis of research data indicates that both groups improved performance in final examinations as compared to the initial ones. Individuals in the experimental group achieved slightly better results in the final tests in comparison to the control group.The use of exercises performed to the music with enhanced high pitch tones and the vibrations showed a positive impact on the level of coordination abilities of the deaf. This positive trend needs to be checked on a larger research population, selected deliberately in terms of etiology and type of hearing disability
