Abstract

According to the arousal-mood hypothesis, changes in arousal and mood when exposed to auditory stimulation underlie the detrimental effects or improvements in cognitive performance. Findings supporting or against this hypothesis are, however, often based on subjective ratings of arousal rather than autonomic/physiological indices of arousal. To assess the arousal-mood hypothesis, we carried out a systematic review of the literature on 31 studies investigating cardiac, electrodermal, and pupillometry measures when exposed to different types of auditory stimulation (music, ambient noise, white noise, and binaural beats) in relation to cognitive performance. Our review suggests that the effects of music, noise, or binaural beats on cardiac, electrodermal, and pupillometry measures in relation to cognitive performance are either mixed or insufficient to draw conclusions. Importantly, the evidence for or against the arousal-mood hypothesis is at best indirect because autonomic arousal and cognitive performance are often considered separately. Future research is needed to directly evaluate the effects of auditory stimulation on autonomic arousal and cognitive performance holistically.

音乐和听觉刺激对自律神经唤醒、认知和注意力的影响：系统综述。

根据 "唤醒-情绪假说"，在受到听觉刺激时，唤醒和情绪的变化是导致认知能力下降或提高的原因。然而，支持或反对这一假说的研究结果往往基于对唤醒的主观评价，而不是唤醒的自律神经/生理指标。为了评估 "唤醒-情绪 "假说，我们对 31 项研究的文献进行了系统回顾，这些研究调查了暴露于不同类型的听觉刺激（音乐、环境噪音、白噪音和双耳节拍）时，心脏、皮电和瞳孔测量指标与认知表现的关系。我们的综述表明，音乐、噪音或双耳节拍对与认知能力相关的心电、皮电和瞳孔测量的影响不一，或不足以得出结论。重要的是，支持或反对唤醒-情绪假说的证据充其量只是间接的，因为自律神经唤醒和认知能力通常是分开考虑的。未来的研究需要直接从整体上评估听觉刺激对自律神经唤醒和认知能力的影响。

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Psychophysiology is the official journal of the International Organization of Psychophysiology, and provides a respected forum for the publication of high quality original contributions on all aspects of psychophysiology. The journal is interdisciplinary and aims to integrate the neurosciences and behavioral sciences. Empirical, theoretical, and review articles are encouraged in the following areas: • Cerebral psychophysiology: including functional brain mapping and neuroimaging with Event-Related Potentials (ERPs), Positron Emission Tomography (PET), Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) and Electroencephalographic studies. • Autonomic functions: including bilateral electrodermal activity, pupillometry and blood volume changes. • Cardiovascular Psychophysiology:including studies of blood pressure, cardiac functioning and respiration. • Somatic psychophysiology: including muscle activity, eye movements and eye blinks.
