About

Preferred music improves cognitive function in patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC). However, it is still unknown whether it is a general effect of music (because of its acoustic features) or an autobiographical effect (because of its emotional and meaningful contents).

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of sensory modality (auditory versus olfactory) and preference (preferred versus neutral) of the testing context on the performance of four items from the coma recovery scale-revised
