The Relationship Between Sound Intensity And the Center of Balance
(Journal of Advanced Student Sciences (JASS), 2014)
Daily activities require the proper coordination between sensory systems, brain integration, and
muscular movements. A deviation in any of these systems may slightly or severely disrupt the
body’s sensitive homeostatic ...
The Effects of Music and Breathing Exercises in Reducing the Physiological Symptoms of Stress
(Journal of Advanced Student Sciences (JASS), 2014)
This study analyzes and compares several methods of reducing stress following induced
anxiety events. The physiological indicators of stress measured in this study are blood pressure,
heart rate, and electrodermal activity ...
Effects of Varying Audio Frequencies on Reaction Time and Muscular Activity
(Journal of Advanced Student Sciences (JASS), 2014)
Audio perception is a key component in every individual’s ability to react to alarms in the case of
an emergency. There have been few studies done which utilize human perception and
physiological responses aimed to ...
Moderate Aerobic Exercise has an Inconclusive Effect on Fine Motor Control
(Journal of Advanced Student Sciences (JASS), 2014)
Fine motor control involves the coordination of many different physiological systems to
produce precise movements. The central nervous system, peripheral nerves, muscles, and blood
vessels all have an active role in ...
Correlation between Physical Activity and Stress Response in Polygraph Tests
(Journal of Advanced Student Sciences (JASS), 2014)
This study investigated whether active individuals would be able to better cheat a
polygraph test by virtue of a more controlled heart and respiration rate and a lower stress
response. The subjects were asked 25 questions, ...
The Effect of Chewing Gum on Modulating Pain Responses
(Journal of Advanced Student Sciences (JASS), 2014)
The purpose of this study was to examine how chewing gum modulates pain response by observing physiological changes associated with pain. Measures of heart rate (HR), mean arterial blood pressure (MABP), and respiratory ...
Meditation and Stress Mitigation: can a one-time meditation session mitigate subsequent stress, as measured by heart rate, electrodermal activity, and blood pressure?
(Journal of Advanced Student Sciences (JASS), 2014)
Objectives: This study explores the effect of one-time guided meditation on physiological
measures of stress after a stress induction. The goal is to determine if meditating even once can
mitigate stress in the short ...
The Effect of Different Musical Tempos on Post-Exercise Recovery
(Journal of Advanced Student Sciences (JASS), 2014)
Whether you choose to cruise to an electronic mix on a 5k run or head bob to classic rock
in preparation for a lift on bench press, it is evident that listening to music while exercising has
become a popular trend. ...
The Effects of Exercise on Reaction Time
(Journal of Advanced Student Sciences (JASS), 2014)
Past research has shown that an individual’s reaction time can be a valid indicator of the
central nervous system’s ability to receive and synchronize movement expressed through the
peripheral nervous system. This ...
The Benefits of Exercise Warm‐Up on Grip Strength and Fatigue Time
(Journal of Advanced Student Sciences (JASS), 2014)
Strength and endurance are two key factors in any athlete’s ability to perform. This
experiment was designed to measure the correlation between an exercise warm up and
grip strength and fatigue time. Two groups, a control ...
