Analysis the Effect of Listening Music on the Human Brain by Using Electroencephalogram (EEG) Technique

This research investigates the impact of music reflexology on brain activity, utilizing Electroencephalogram (EEG) features to analyze neurological responses. The study addresses two primary objectives: Identifying the effectiveness of music listening on humans and analyzing the relationship between different signals released by the different activity and music reflexology using EEG feature (Alpha, Beta, and Theta Bands). EEG data were collected from various subjects during induced stress (Cognitive task English comprehension test) and listening to the music in the reflexology sessions. EEG signal comparisons across various activities reveal that stress or cognitive demands increase Beta wave activity while decreasing Alpha and Theta waves. Conversely, relaxing activities like listening to calming music increase Alpha and Theta waves and reduce Beta waves. In conclusion, music significantly influences human emotions and physiological states, particularly through compositions with slow tempos, harmonic structures, and acoustic instruments that enhance relaxation and reduce stress.
