Niels Chr. Hansen speaks to music for coping with different types of crises (both personal and societal).

Catherine Tan has looked at age and music mood regulation, finding slight declines in strategy use but stability in underlying functions.

Ana Lucia Louro and Teresa Mateiro show how graduate student diaries have a "double position" in being a mirror (formative device) and a window (source of understanding).
+ identity, emotion, relationships interact in their formation.

Caroline Owen demonstrates that children as young as five articulate/interpret musical experiences with incredible depth -- with multiple layers of inward introspection/description/reflection, outward reflection on others/the world, and a blend or blurring of both.

Hazel Van Der Walle demonstrates the richness obtained through a qualitative+co-occurence network approach to understanding mental content during music listening.
resulting in a really cool consideration of the narrative, referential, and experiential components.

great to hear from @spooky-kat.bsky.social on young adults using scary music (self-selected) to make sense of what fear might mean in their everyday lives.

neat to see drawing on the @mupsych.bsky.social dataset to explore music and sleep.
data showing people listen to a RANGE of music and not necessarily that which is on "sleep playlists"

Great to present theoretical and critical work on musical chills at #Musiconnex w/ @tuomaseerola.bsky.social

We are not ready for hypothesis-driven musical chills research, due to a weak derivation chain (no clear chills concept, no standard measures, and no causal models).

More on this soon!

Delighted to be here at the Uni of Jyvaskyla for #musiconnex - after a welcome from Suvi Saarikallio, it was over to Katrina McFerrin for an excellent, thought-provoking, and entertaining keynote. What a great start!! #phdlife #musicscience #conference #psychscisky

Thought provoking keynote from Katrina McFerran, who's deliberately thinking about 'choosing' rather than 'using' music
& advocating for (1) the consideration of intuitive and intellectual choice and (2) digging deeper into what 'participant-chosen' 'preferred' music is

#Musiconnex event started at Jyväskylä, led by Suvi Saarikallio. 3 days about research findings of how music regulates & connects people #erc #EU @coe-mmbb.bsky.social

I'm in Finland for #Musiconnex - no wonder everyone is happy, it's beautiful!!
