  2. Music and sleep - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_and_sleep

    Music improved sleep quality with increased exposure regardless of differences in the demographic, music genre, duration of treatment, and exposure frequency. Dickson suggests "listening to music that you find relaxing, at the same time, every night for at least three weeks".

  3. Beat (acoustics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_(acoustics)

    Diagram of beat frequency. In acoustics, a beat is an interference pattern between two sounds of slightly different frequencies, perceived as a periodic variation in volume whose rate is the difference of the two frequencies. With tuning instruments that can produce sustained tones, beats can be readily recognized.

  4. Brainwave entrainment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainwave_entrainment

    Brainwave entrainment is a colloquialism for 'neural entrainment', [25] which is a term used to denote the way in which the aggregate frequency of oscillations produced by the synchronous electrical activity in ensembles of cortical neurons can adjust to synchronize with the periodic vibration of external stimuli, such as a sustained acoustic ...

  5. Isochronic tones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isochronic_tones

    Isochronic tones can quantitatively be distinguished by both the frequency or pitch of the tone itself, and by the interval or frequency of repetition of the tone. While listening to isochronic tones is a technique often employed in the theoretical practice of brainwave entrainment, there is no significant research that confirms any claims of ...

    According to the NHS, these qualities can increase personal awareness and help identify signs of stress and anxiety. [5] Practicing mindfulness can help individuals be more observant of their present thoughts and actions. [6] Research shows that meditation music can improve confidence [clarification needed] during the practice of meditation. [7]

  7. Frequency following response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_following_response

    The recording procedures for the scalp-recorded FFR are essentially the same as the ABR. A montage of three electrodes is typically utilized: An active electrode, located either at the top of the head or top of the forehead, a reference electrode, located on an earlobe, mastoid, or high vertebra, and a ground electrode, located either on the other earlobe or in the middle of the forehead.

  8. Gamma wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_wave

    A gamma wave or gamma rhythm is a pattern of neural oscillation in humans with a frequency between 30 and 100 Hz, the 40 Hz point being of particular interest. [1] Gamma waves with frequencies between 30 and 70 hertz may be classified as low gamma , and those between 70 and 150 hertz as high gamma .

  9. Binaural recording - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binaural_recording

    A typical binaural recording unit has two high-fidelity microphones mounted in a dummy head, inset in ear-shaped molds to fully capture all of the audio frequency adjustments (known as head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) in the psychoacoustic research community) that happen naturally as sound wraps around the human head and is "shaped" by ...
