Effect of specific melodic scales of Indian music in reducing state and trait anxiety – a randomized clinical trial
Keyword(s):
Music is an aesthetic stimulus that evokes a subjective experience in every individual involved in it. Music as a modality to reduce anxiety and stress has been researched scientifically across the world, but evidence regarding Indian musical scales (ragas) is meager. Healthy individuals were randomly divided into 4 groups where 3 groups [A(Ahir bhairav), B (Kaunsi Kanada), C (Bhimpalas)] received music intervention (10 minutes) while Group D was the control group. Anxiety was scored using State trait anxietyinventory (STAI) before and after the intervention.
