Effects of neurostimulation and motivating patriotic music on reserve officer training unit cadets running performance and mood states
Transcranial neurostimulation can improve bodily function through training the brain and the central nervous system. Besides that, there are also increasing evidence that the “right” music can increase performance. This study examined the effects of neurostimulation and motivating patriotic music...

| description | Transcranial neurostimulation can improve bodily function through training the brain
and the central nervous system. Besides that, there are also increasing evidence that
the “right” music can increase performance. This study examined the effects of
neurostimulation and motivating patriotic music on running performance and mood
states of 22 male ROTU cadets. All the participants participated in all three research
conditions which were no stimulation, neurostimulation and motivating patriotic music,
but at different times with one week of rest in between conditions. Upon receiving the
stimulation, the participants did Multistage Fitness Test (MSFT) to measure their
running performance. Mood states of the participants were taken before stimulation,
after stimulation and after performing MSFT by using Brunel Mood Scale (BRUMS)
questionnaire. There were no statistically significant differences in the running
performance between no stimulation, neurostimulation and motivating patriotic music.
For stimulation by using motivating patriotic music, we found out that there were
statistically significant differences in fatigue, tension and vigour mood states across the
three times. As for neurostimulation, we found out that there were statistically significant
differences in all six BRUMS items that we assessed. We conclude that
neurostimulation and motivating patriotic music did not increase the running
performance of ROTU cadets. Both neurostimulation and listening to motivating patriotic
music can enhance mood states before a running performance test. Motivating patriotic
music was shown to give greater mood responses when compared to neurostimulation. |
