Abstract

We examined the anticipatory stress response in musicians before a day of rehearsal and a concert and examined if experience levels modulated physiological and perception of stress responses. Twenty members of a professional orchestra had their heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP), and galvanic skin response/conductance (GSR) measured as well as self-assessment of their anxiety surrounding their performance. HR was significantly elevated prior to a concert (87 bpm) compared with a rehearsal (80 bpm), whereas no differences were observed for BP. GSR responses prior to a concert were significantly elevated in less experienced musicians compared with their more experienced peers and a significant inverse correlation was also found between years of experience and GSR responses. Similarly, musicians with greater experience reported on average less perceived somatic anxiety during the concert and a significant inverse correlation was found between years of experience and perceived somatic anxiety. These results suggest that the type of performance and the experience level of the musician modulates anticipatory stress responses. Further understanding of the role of anticipatory stress in musicians could have a number of practical benefits.

经验和表演类型会改变音乐家的预期压力

我们研究了音乐家在排练和音乐会前的预期压力反应，并研究了经验水平是否调节了生理和对压力反应的感知。研究人员测量了20名专业管弦乐队成员的心率(HR)、血压(BP)、皮肤电反应/电导(GSR)，并对他们在表演时的焦虑程度进行了自我评估。与排练(80 bpm)相比，音乐会前心率(87 bpm)显著升高，而血压(BP)没有差异。与经验丰富的同龄人相比，经验不足的音乐家在音乐会前的GSR反应显著升高，并且在经验年限和GSR反应之间也发现了显著的负相关。同样，经验丰富的音乐家在音乐会期间平均较少感受到身体焦虑，并且在经验的年数和感受到的身体焦虑之间发现了显著的负相关。这些结果表明，演奏类型和音乐家的经验水平调节预期应激反应。进一步了解预期压力在音乐家中的作用可能会有许多实际的好处。

期刊介绍： Psychology of Music and SEMPRE provide an international forum for researchers working in the fields of psychology of music and music education, to encourage the exchange of ideas and to disseminate research findings. Psychology of Music publishes peer-reviewed papers directed at increasing the scientific understanding of any psychological aspect of music. These include studies on listening, performing, creating, memorising, analysing, describing, learning, and teaching, as well as applied social, developmental, attitudinal and therapeutic studies. Special emphasis is placed on studies carried out in naturalistic settings, especially those which address the interface between music psychology and music education.
