Effects of Personalized Music Listening in Advanced Alzheimer's
The Effects of Personalized Music Listening on Functional and Cognitive Status in Advanced-Stage Alzheimer's Disease
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 23 Sept 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Recent functional imaging studies have facilitated a better understanding of the neuroplasticity mechanisms underlying the strong and multifaceted effects of music on brain development. For this reason, music is considered a significant factor in improving recall and mood in individuals with dementia. A review investigating the cognitive and behavioral effects of music listening in Alzheimer's disease (AD) reported that personalized (individualized) music listening yielded the best outcomes. This study aims to examine the effects of personalized music activities on functional and cognitive status in individuals with advanced-stage AD.
