Stress Recovery Effects of High- and Low-Frequency Amplified Music on Heart Rate Variability by Yoshie Nakajima, Naofumi Tanaka, Tatsuya Mima, Shin-Ichi Izumi

“…To measure autonomic response, we calculated the high-frequency normalized unit (HFnu), low-frequency normalized unit, and the LF/HF ratio from the heart rate using electrocardiography. We defined the stress recovery ratio as the value obtained after participants listened to music following scratching noise, normalized by the value obtained after participants listened to white noise after the stress noise, in terms of the HFnu, low-frequency normalized unit, LF/HF ratio, and heart rate. …”
