Influence of Monaural Auditory Stimulation Combined with Music on Brain Activity

Ming Chang, Kenta Tanaka, Yasushi Naruse, Yasuhiko Imamura, Shinya Fujii

This study investigates the effects of monaural auditory stimulation combined with music on brain activity and relaxation, finding increased theta band power and MMN amplitude, suggesting a relaxation state similar to sauna-induced 'totonou'.
