There has been much controversy over the effects of music tempo on movement flow. In this study, a single-factor repeated-measurement design was used to explore the effect of music tempo (fast, slow, and no music control) on movement flow by measuring both subjective experiences and objective electroencephalographic (EEG) characteristics during brisk walking. In the experiment, 20 college students walked briskly on a treadmill using EEG equipment. Each participant walked for 10 min on three different days. Their brain waves were recorded during brisk walking on a treadmill. After each walk, the participants completed a form of short flow state scale-2 (S FSS-2), which covered nine major aspects of flow. The results showed that music tempo had a significant effect on subjective experiences and objective physiological characteristics; that is, a higher subjective flow level for fast-tempo music in brisk walking and a significant enhancement of mean power values in the subconscious brain waves of the delta, theta, alpha, and beta bands for fast tempo music were observed. A fast tempo facilitated the movement flow. The findings of this study can be instructive for the use of music in exercises to improve sports training outcomes.
音乐节奏对动作流畅性的影响一直存在诸多争议。在本研究中，采用单因素重复测量设计，通过在轻快步行过程中测量主观体验和客观脑电图（EEG）特征，来探究音乐节奏（快、慢以及无音乐对照）对动作流畅性的影响。在实验中，20名大学生使用EEG设备在跑步机上轻快行走。每位参与者在三天内分别进行10分钟的行走。在跑步机上轻快行走时记录他们的脑电波。每次行走后，参与者完成一份简短的流畅状态量表-2（S FSS-2），该量表涵盖了流畅性的九个主要方面。结果表明，音乐节奏对主观体验和客观生理特征有显著影响；即在轻快步行中，快节奏音乐的主观流畅水平更高，并且观察到快节奏音乐在δ、θ、α和β波段的潜意识脑电波中的平均功率值有显著增强。快节奏促进了动作流畅性。本研究结果对于在运动中使用音乐以提高运动训练效果具有指导意义。
