Abstract

There is a lack of research on the distraction effects of music stimuli with the multiple time scales of biological functions. It should be preferable to propose an effective strategy for evaluating the time varying behavior of psychological responses to music during exercise on autonomic nervous activity. From the RR interval time series of electrocardiograms recorded during cycling with low intensity, we estimated autonomic nervous activity related indices: time and frequency domain indices estimated from the fluctuations of the RR interval. Then we searched the temporal distribution of the stimulus response module appeared in the time varying behavior. The inspection of distraction effects was done for properly selected autonomic nervous activity. Then related indices and the ratings of perceived exertion for evaluating appropriate participants based on both the impression of favorability to music and the stimulus response module occurrences. The results inferred that the multiple time scales strategy could be of help to assess the suitable approach to identify the distraction effects of music stimuli.
