Current literature supports receptive music relaxation therapy as having a positive effect on a patient's parasympathetic nervous system, reducing control from the sympathetic nervous system, allowing the client to relax. However, of the multiple variables that may affect the mechanisms of a receptive music listening experience, one has not been researched significantly enough to understand its possible impacts on relaxation. Musical instrumentation tuning frequency variation preference is a variable that may have a moderating effect on overall relaxation attainment, and the depth of that relaxation. This study hypothesizes that tuning preference plays a significant role in the attainment and depth of receptive music relaxation. To examine and analyze study participants preferred frequencies and measure the depth of relaxation they attained, they first completed descriptive statistics, then listened to six songs of differing genre recorded at three common tunings of the note "A" (432Hz, 440Hz, 444Hz). Participants selected their preferred frequency or "no preference", then rated the depth of relaxation attained for their preferred tuning preferences for each song, following a grounded theory design. Lastly, they completed a brief projective measure to lend additional support to their relaxation experience. The combined test feedback was analyzed using chi-square and ANOVA analysis. Results showed that reported tuning preferences varied with genre, and though overall tuning preference results leaned toward 432Hz, significance was not attained. However, regardless of song genre, participants who chose one of the three specific tunings reported notably deeper relaxation levels over those participants who chose "no preference" and participants who chose 432Hz as their preferred tuning preference supported a significantly deeper relaxation than all other frequency preferences. These results support the hypothesis that having a preferred music instrumentation tuning frequency is positively associated with increased depths of relaxation, though no specific frequency of "A" was significantly preferred over another.
