摘要 |
METHOD. In this within-subject study, we recruited
and separately tested 16 UN patients with a right-hemisphere stroke under
three conditions within 1 wk. In each condition, participants were asked to
complete three subtests of the Behavioral
Inattention Test while listening to classical music, white noise, or nothing.
All conditions and the presentation of the tests were counterbalanced across
participants. Visual analog scales were used to
provide self-reported ratings of arousal and mood. RESULTS. Participants generally had the highest
scores under the classical music condition and the lowest scores under the
silence condition. In addition, most participants rated their arousal as
highest after listening to classical music. CONCLUSION. Listening to classical music may improve
visual attention in stroke patients with UN. Future research with larger study
populations is necessary to validate these findings. |
