Abstract in brief

Insomnia is a common sleep disorder that negatively affects quality of life and health, and listening to music is a popular sleep aid but its effectiveness is unclear.
The review analyzed six studies with 314 adults, finding that listening to prerecorded music daily for several days can improve sleep quality, with evidence rated as moderate quality.
Meta-analyses showed consistent positive effects, but the overall quality of evidence varies, and more research is needed to confirm music's benefits for adult insomnia.
