PY 554 - Intentional Use of Music and Sound in Health, Psychology

The goal of this course is to help students develop skills and rationale for the selection of music/sound stimulation for intentional, therapeutic, self-care, and educational uses. Topics covered, include the effects of music on physiological response (e.g. stimulative vs. sedative music affecting stress, relaxation, pain stimulation, immune factors, sleep); emotions, cognitive/intellectual development; self actualization; and creativity. Discussions, class demonstrations, and projects emphasize factors impacting selection, use, and outcome effectiveness of music/sound. Ethical issues for individual and group use, as well as cultural implications of music/sound, are also considered. (1 credit)
