The Sound of Success: Investigating Cognitive and Behavioral Effects of Motivational Music in Sports
(2017)
Listening to music before, during, or after sports is a common phenomenon, yet its functions and effects on performance, cognition, and behavior remain to be investigated. Listening to music before, during, or after sports is a common phenomenon, yet its functions and effects on performance, cognition, and behavior remain to be investigated. In this study we present a novel approach to the role of music in sports and exercise that focuses on the notion of musical self-enhancement (Elvers, 2016). We derived the following hypotheses from this framework: listening to motivational music will (i) enhance self-evaluative cognition, (ii) improve performance in a ball game, and (iii) evoke greater risk-taking behavior. To evaluate the hypotheses, we conducted a between-groups experiment (N = 150) testing the effectiveness of both an experimenter playlist and a participant-selected playlist in comparison to a no-music control condition. All participants performed a ball-throwing task developed by Decharms and Davé (1965), consisting of two parts: First, participants threw the ball from fixed distances into a funnel basket. During this task, performance was measured. In the second part, the participants themselves chose distances from the basket, which allowed their risk-taking behavior to be assessed. The results indicate that listening to motivational music led to greater risk taking but did not improve ball-throwing performance. This effect was more pronounced in male participants and among those who listened to their own playlists. Furthermore, self-selected music enhanced state self-esteem in participants who were performing well but not in those who were performing poorly. We also discuss further implications for the notion of musical self-enhancement. // Listening to music before, during, or after sports is a common phenomenon, yet its functions and effects on performance, cognition, and behavior remain to be investigated.

Live-Video-Broadcasting mit mehreren Kameras erfordert eine Vielzahl von Fachkenntnissen. Robotersysteme ermöglichen zwar die Automatisierung von gängigen und wiederholten Tracking-Aufnahmen, diese erlauben jedoch keine kurzfristigen Anpassungen aufgrund von unvorhersehbaren Ereignissen. In diesem Beitrag wird ein modulares, automatisiertes Kamerasteuerungs- und Bildschnitt-System eingeführt, das auf grundlegenden kinematografischen Regeln basiert. Die Positionen der Akteure werden durch ein markerloses Tracking-System bereitgestellt. Darüber hinaus werden Tonpegel der Lavaliermikrofone der Akteure zur Analyse der aktuellen Szene verwendet. Ein Expertensystem ermittelt geeignete Kamerawinkel und entscheidet, wann von einer Kamera auf eine andere umgeschaltet werden soll. Eine Testproduktion wurde durchgeführt, um den entwickelten Prototyp in einem Live-Broadcast-Szenario zu beobachten und diente als Videodemonstration für eine Evaluierung.
