Music as a coping strategy involves the use of music (either through listening or playing music) in order to reduce many of the psychological and physical manifestations of stress, as well as stress itself. The use of music to cope with stress is an example of an emotion-focused, adaptive coping strategy in that it is typically geared towards the reduction or elimination of perceived feelings that arise in response to stress, rather than the stressor itself. In essence, advocates of this therapy claim that the use of music helps to lower perceived stress levels in patients, as well as lower more biologically measurable quantities such as the levels of epinephrine and cortisol.〔Labbe Elise et al. (2007). "Stress and Coping: The Effectiveness of Different Types of Music". Applied Psychophysiology and Feedback 32 (3): 163-168.〕 Additionally, music therapy programs have been repeatedly demonstrated to reduce depression and anxiety symptoms in the long term.〔Yehuda, Nechama (2011). "Music and Stress". The Journal of Adult Development 18: 85-94.〕 ==Major theories== (詳細は# Appraisal-based - Intended to modify the individual's thoughts. Stress is typically eliminated through rationalization, changes in values or thinking patterns, or with humor. # Problem-based - Directed towards changing the cause of the stress itself. This could either involve eliminating or adapting to a stressor. # Emotion-based - Emotion focused coping strategies are typically geared towards influencing one's emotional reactions to the stressor. Meditation, distractions, or the release of emotion are all forms of emotion-based coping strategy. Mindfulness-based stress reduction is another example of this. Because music-based coping is designed to modify an individual's emotional reactions to or perceptions of a certain event, it is best classified as an emotion-based coping strategy. Rather than attempting to directly influence or eliminate a particular stressor, music-based coping instead relies on influencing an individual's emotional and mental reaction to the stressor - by either reducing the physiological effects of the stress response, or directly mitigating the emotional response one has to stress. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Music as a coping strategy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
