Overcoming Sleep Inertia Through Jazz Music on Night Shift Workers Using the MUSE S-Portable EEG Headband

Sleep inertia, a condition characterized by drowsiness, confusion, and impaired cognitive performance after waking, often affects night shift workers, especially those waking from deep sleep or insufficient rest. This research aims to reduce sleep inertia in night shift workers using jazz music. The study involved analyzing delta and theta brain waves of six participants, recorded with EEG both before and after listening to jazz music. EEG data were processed using Support Vector Machine (SVM) to evaluate precision, recall, F1 score, and accuracy. The results showed an increase in accuracy for all participants after listening to jazz music, with improvements in both low and high classifications of brain waves. Before the music, accuracy for delta and theta waves ranged from 0.73 to 1, and after the music, it ranged from 0.78 to 1. This improvement in precision, recall, F1 score, and accuracy suggests that jazz music can effectively reduce sleep inertia. Addressing this condition quickly is expected to benefit workers' health and enhance their productivity.
