Abstract

In the paper results of a preliminary research are presented concerning the influence of various music types on the human biocybernetic response. 35 people (24 women, 11 men) of different age and occupation underwent the examination. Each of them listened to three music pieces (classical, relaxing and rock music, in a previously defined order). The measured biomedical signal was the GSR. Women exposed more varied changes than men in their emotional state when they were stimulated with different music types. Young people reacted strongest on classical music, whereas mature persons revealed highest GSR changes while listening to rock music. The results for different occupation groups are also presented in the article.
