A meta-analytic review of research articles using music to decrease arousal due to stress was conducted on 22 quantitative studies. Results demonstrated that music alone and music assisted relaxation techniques significantly decreased arousal (d = +.67). Further analysis of each study revealed that the amount of stress reduction was significantly different when considering age, type of stress, music assisted relaxation technique, musical preference, previous music experience, and type of intervention. Implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.
对22项定量研究进行了一项荟萃分析综述，这些研究使用音乐来降低因压力引起的唤醒水平。结果表明，单独的音乐和音乐辅助放松技巧能显著降低唤醒水平（d = +0.67）。对每项研究的进一步分析显示，在考虑年龄、压力类型、音乐辅助放松技巧、音乐偏好、以往音乐体验和干预类型时，压力减轻的程度存在显著差异。文中讨论了对未来研究的启示和建议。
