ABSTRACT

Mental health is a crucial aspect of overall wellbeing, and anxiety and depression among graduate students have become grave concerns. This study aimed to determine whether listening to music can help graduate students to reduce their depression levels. For the experiment, 1,007 participants were selected from several universities in Guangxi, of which 56 completed the experiment. The participants were divided into a music group (n = 28) that listened to music of their choice for 30 min per week for 13 weeks and a non-music group (n = 28) that did not. After music intervention, the depression levels of the music group participants were significantly lower than that of the non-music group participants. This indicates that music has a significant effect on the depression levels of graduate students and that music could serve as an effective intervention to alleviate their depression.

心理健康是整体福祉的关键方面，而研究生的焦虑和沮丧已成为人们严重关注的问题。这项研究旨在确定听音乐是否可以帮助研究生降低抑郁水平。为进行实验，从广西几所大学中选出了1,007名参与者，其中56名完成了实验。参与者被分成音乐组（Ñ  = 28）听取自己选择的音乐每周30分钟13周和非音乐组（Ñ = 28）没有。音乐干预后，音乐组参与者的抑郁水平明显低于非音乐组参与者。这表明音乐对研究生的抑郁水平有重要影响，并且音乐可以作为缓解他们抑郁的有效干预手段。
