Background and purpose: In recent years, psychological and physiological effects of music on athletic performance have become an attractive field of research. The present study investigates the effect of various kinds of music on mood characteristics and performance accuracy in skilled and semi-skilled female basketball players. Methods: The population for this quasi-experimental study consisted of skilled players (League) and semi-skilled players (PE students).
