Subjects: In total, 99 right-handed healthy university students were randomly assigned to 4 groups: OE with a natural condition (OEN group); OE with an impoverished condition (OEI group); RE group; or the control group.
Methods: Using computer software, reaction time and accuracy were assessed in all participants while performing sequential finger tapping. The OEN group practiced the tapping sequences by playing an electric piano to produce familiar songs. The OEI group practiced the same sequences using a piano but without producing sounds, thereby creating the impoverished condition. The RE group practiced the same tapping sequences on a tabletop, and the control group rested instead of practicing. Immediately after the practice session, the participants in all 3 experimental groups were asked to rate their happiness, interest, relaxation, and tiredness using the Likert scale.
Results: There were no significant differences between groups, except the participants in the OEN group showed significantly higher accuracy on the intermanual transfer test in comparison with the control group. The OEN and OEI groups also reported a statistically significant higher level of happiness than the RE group and OEN group showed significantly a lower level of tiredness than the RE group.
Conclusion: The additional feedback provided by OEs could enhance the psychological aspects that motivate persons to engage in occupational therapy.},
