This study was purported to examine the definition of tone deafness, various factors for the cause based on literature review of research findings, and to examine therapeutic application of music for treatment of tone deafness. With research, it was found that there can be three different kinds of tone deafness; amusia, agnosia, and asonia. Literature review showed that tone deafness has been frequently dealt in many research in order to verify the causal factors, such as gender, age, and environments. With time, the research trend on tone deafness has shifted towards neurological approach closely examining brain activity, presenting the statement that the brain's capacity to perceive modest pitch changes may be congenitally impaired. Also physiological factors contribute to tone deafness called diplacusis, which is a phenomenon wherein a given tone is heard as different pitches by the two ears, resulting in conflicting bilateral perception of pitch. Music can be used for treatment of various factors causing tone deafness. The most efficient intervention was singing program. Pitch-matching training can be effective training using operant conditioning procedure. Successive approximation or reinforcement of correct response alone was more efficient procedure in helping uncertain singers to sing on pitch. Also progressive breathing exercises helped the training the pitch-matching where one had to coordinate hearing and voice.

This aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the music appreciation teaching-learning method on the musical ability of young children. The music appreciation activities were developed firstly in consideration of the 4 steps of the learning cycle (recognition, exploration, inquiry, application). One group was then taught music appreciation, taking into account the learning cycle. The results were then compared with another comparative group in terms of musical ability. The results indicated that the musical ability sum of the treatment groups improved more than the comparative group. More specifically, the treatment group for four-year-olds was seen to have improved significantly more than the comparative group in terms of musical ability. These results indicate that this music appreciation teaching-learning method has a number of positive effects upon young children`s musical ability. Therefore, it is suggested that kindergarten teachers conduct instruction with an appropriate accompanying learning cycle as part of the teaching-learning method when it comes to improving the musical ability of young children.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of imagery-centered music listening on the physiological and psychological relaxation of women with high-risk pregnancy. A total sample of 15 subjects participated in 11 sessions. The research data was collected only in the first session for each subject. In this experimental study, physiological and psychological relaxation were evaluated by peripheral temperatures and the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), respectively. For the music listening program for imagery experience, 27 pieces of relaxing music were selected and the modified MI technique was used. After interventions, the results showed that peripheral temperatures increased and the VAS scores decreased. Imagery exercises with music listening offered a positive experience to elicit physiological and psychological relaxation in subjects. In conclusion, imagery-centered music listening is an effective modality to facilitate relaxation, stability, and support for women with high-risk pregnancy.

This study aims to conduct a music psychotherapy program on North Korean child defectors, who are experiencing acculturative stress, and to discover the effects of the program on the participants' acculturative stress. This study targeted four North Korean child defectors, who belonged to an H afterschool class in Seoul and performed the program in individual sessions for about 40 minutes per session, totaling 14 sessions. The research results include the following. First, after comparing the results of acculturative stress score that measured before and after the execution of the music psychotherapy program, the mean of the score was significantly decreased from 32.75 to 23 average. Furthermore, as a result of conducting a qualitative analysis of the lingual responses that the participants demonstrated in musical activity, in relation to acculturative stress, the participants were found to experience a positive change. These results imply that the music psychotherapy program offers consistent support through music to North Korean Child Defectors, who are cowering psychologically and experiencing difficulty in adaptation, and reinforces inner resources through their positive self-perception, which indicates that it can be an effective mediation in reducing their acculturative stress.

This study aims to identify the effect of music psychotherapy on motivation for learning in the underachieving student. The study divided nine children into two groups and placed four children in a test group and five children in a control group. After conducting a pre-test, the researcher performed music psychotherapy with the four children in the test group for about 12 weeks, twice a week, totaling 18 sessions. Quantitative data were measured in pre-and-post tests using Mann-Whitney's U-test, and the effects of the therapy were analyzed using Wilcoxon. The findings of this study were as follows. Music psychotherapy was shown to be effective for improving all types of motivation for learning in underachieving students (p < .001). This was shown by assessing improvements in the experimental group across four sub-areas of motivation for learning (p < .1), and directly measured by examining the subjects' lingual responses related to motivation for learning. These results demonstrate that music psychotherapy is effective for enhancing motivation for learning in underachieving students.
