An ISO Principle-Based Music Intervention for Reducing Stress, Anxiety, and Depression

Participants will receive music playlists designed according to the ISO principle, which involves matching the participant's current emotional state and gradually transitioning to music reflecting a desired mood. The intervention aims to reduce stress and support emotional regulation by guiding affective resonance through music progression.

Participants will receive music playlists based on the compensation principle, where the music contrasts the participant's current emotional state by directly presenting tracks aligned with the desired emotional outcome (e.g., calm music for stressed mood). This approach seeks to counteract stress and shift affective states through musical contrast.
