HOw should I perform an experiment on music and pulse rate?

I want to do an experiment for our scence class on the effect of music on pulse rate. How should i Perform this?

ARe you going to have the listener strapped in a chair so they can’t move?

OR u let them move by dancing around?

What is it you’re trying to prove?

Does music give an increase on pulse rate if a listener is in a zero movement condition?

Will a test subject sit still to listen to music?

Go down to the local drugstore and buy a pulse rate machine..they are inexpensive and accurate.

How do u keep the test subject from moving their head while they keep up with the beat of the music?

You could attempt to strap everything down, but very few humans like sitting still.

Try it on urself first…see how long you can sit still to full versions of Beethoven’s 5th, or Led Zeppelin….or music from Queen….or LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOOR! dead pool…or Paul Oakenfold’s Ready Steady GO…What about Tchaikovsky’s War of 1812? or Mursovky’s: Night on Bear Mountain? What about FRANK SINATRA…NEW YORK NEW YORK!
