To study the effect of Baroque music in people with dementia.
Patients in a multicultural dementia-specific aged care facility were subjected to Baroque music in a cross-over study.
There were significantly more behavioural disturbances during the weeks when Baroque music was played compared to control periods (0.2 more episodes per week, P = 0.01), and more episodes in the afternoon shift compared to evening shift (1 more episode per week, P = 0.001).
These results confirm that music can influence behaviour but is contrary to previous results.
研究巴洛克音乐对痴呆患者的影响。
在一项交叉研究中，对一家多元文化的痴呆症特定老年护理机构中的患者播放巴洛克音乐。
与对照期相比，播放巴洛克音乐的几周内行为障碍明显更多（每周多0.2次发作，P = 0.01），且下午班次的发作次数比晚班更多（每周多1次发作，P = 0.001）。
这些结果证实音乐可以影响行为，但与先前的结果相反。
