The Power of Classic Music to Reduce Anxiety in Rats Treated with Simvastatin

چکیده
oothing effects of music on human psychology and behavior are well known (Koelsch, 2010). Classical music also appears to influence the behavior and/or physiology of captive animals in a manner suggestive of enhanced well-being (Chikahisa et al., 2007; Cruz et al., 2010). In addition, other studies show that music leads to positive behaviors (Wells & Irwin, 2008) and physiological benefits (Núñez et al., 2002; Sutoo & Akiyama, 2004; Nakamura et al., 2007). The value of auditory enrichment has been studied in a variety of species, including birds (Reed et al., 1993), cattle (Uetake et al., 1997), horses (Houpt et al., 2000), dogs (Wells et al., 2002) and primates (Wells et al., 2006).
