The purpose of this study was to examine and compare the mood regulation effects induced by different types of exercise and music. In Study 1, 67 university students listened to music (lively and dynamic Fast Music: FM or calm and static Slow Music: SM) and in Study 2, 78 university students performed the chosen exercise (Dynamic Exercise: DE or Static Exercise: SE). The changes in their mood states after each task of 3 min were compared by using the vitality, stability, arousal, and pleasure scores of mood states in the Two-Dimensional Mood Scale (Sakairi, Nakatsuka, & Shimizu, 2013). Results indicated that pleasure scores increased significantly after all tasks. Increases in the vitality score, as activation effect, was confirmed to have occurred after listening to FM, and engaging in DE and SE. Furthermore, increase in the stability score, as relaxation effect, was exhibited after listening to SM and engaging in SE. These findings suggest that individuals can self-regulate their mood states by appropriately taking advantage of activation and relaxation effects of different types of music and exercises.
