Psychophysiological Activation During Preparation, Performance, and Recovery in High- and Low-Anxious Music Students
@article{Studer2014PsychophysiologicalAD, title={Psychophysiological Activation During Preparation, Performance, and Recovery in High- and Low-Anxious Music Students}, author={Regina Studer and Brigitta Danuser and Pascal Wild and Horst Hildebrandt and Patrick Gomez}, journal={Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback}, year={2014}, volume={39}, pages={45-57} }
The present study provides a comprehensive view of (a) the time dynamics of the psychophysiological responding in performing music students (n = 66) before, during, and after a private and a public performance and (b) the moderating effect of music performance anxiety (MPA). Heart rate (HR), minute ventilation (VE), and all affective and somatic self-report variables increased in the public session compared to the private session. Furthermore, the activation of all variables was stronger during…

Positive and Negative Post Performance-Related Thoughts Predict Daily Cortisol Output in University Music Students
- PsychologyFrontiers in Psychology
- 2020
Evidence is provided for a relationship between affectively valenced cognitive processing of a recent music performance and the activity of the HPA axis and the study makes a significant contribution to the literature on the prolonged psychophysiological effects of music performance situations and more broadly of social-evaluative stressors.
Music performance anxiety from the challenge and threat perspective: psychophysiological and performance outcomes
- PsychologyBMC psychology
- 2020
This project aims to investigate whether musicians’ changes in their psychobiological responses and performance quality from a private to a public performance are moderated by their general MPA level, using the biopsychosocial model of challenge and threat as theoretical framework.
Respiratory Variability, Sighing, Anxiety, and Breathing Symptoms in Low- and High-Anxious Music Students Before and After Performing
- PsychologyFrontiers in Psychology

It is concluded that respiratory variability and sighing are sensitive to the performance situation and to musicians’ general MPA level, and anxiety, tension, breathing symptoms, and respiratory responses co-vary significantly in the context of music performance situations.
The relationship between music performance anxiety, subjective performance quality and post-event rumination among music students
