Abstract

Music performance anxiety (MPA) affects most musicians and is commonly listed among the triggering factors of several pathologies, such as depression, overuse syndrome, choking under pressure and focal dystonia. The study aimed at investigating the relationship between the S.F.E.R.A. model theory (SFERA), a multidimensional model for enhancing sport performances, and MPA in professional musicians. The model allows to analyze performances by monitoring five constructs representing underlying cognitive and metacognitive factors that influence performance, highlighting individual strengths and improvement areas. The results confirmed that severe MPA symptoms are a common issue among musicians (47%), while 36% of the sample experienced musculoskeletal pain related to playing their musical instrument in the 2 months preceding the study. Moreover, musicians who suffered from practice-related pain reported higher levels of MPA. The SFERA factors were strongly and negatively correlated with MPA scores, suggesting that improving the SFERA factors might be helpful in reducing MPA: musicians with high MPA showed significantly lower SFERA scores. Moreover, Energy was the strongest predictor of MPA scores among the five SFERA factors, suggesting that musicians with high anxiety levels present difficulties on emotional regulation during the performance and struggle to focus on their performances while ignoring dysfunctional thoughts. The study indicates that SFERA scores can predict MPA and that sport psychology programs applied to the music field may also be useful protective factors for musicians’ psychophysiological health, especially in music academies and universities.
音乐表演焦虑与意大利运动心理学s.f.e.r.a模型:对77名职业音乐家的探索性研究
音乐表演焦虑(MPA)影响着大多数音乐家,通常被列为抑郁症、过度使用综合征、压力下窒息和局灶性肌张力障碍等几种病理的触发因素之一。本研究旨在探讨运动表现提升的多维模型s.f.e.r.a模型理论(SFERA)与专业音乐家MPA之间的关系。该模型允许通过监测代表影响绩效的潜在认知和元认知因素的五个结构来分析绩效,突出个人优势和改进领域。结果证实,严重的MPA症状在音乐家中是一个常见的问题(47%),而36%的样本在研究前2个月经历了与演奏乐器相关的肌肉骨骼疼痛。此外,遭受练习相关疼痛的音乐家报告的MPA水平更高。SFERA因素与MPA分数呈显著负相关,表明改善SFERA因素可能有助于降低MPA:高MPA的音乐家SFERA分数显著降低。此外,在五个SFERA因素中,能量是MPA得分的最强预测因子,这表明高焦虑水平的音乐家在表演过程中存在情绪调节困难,并且难以专注于他们的表演而忽略功能失调的想法。本研究表明,SFERA分数可以预测MPA,运动心理学课程在音乐领域的应用也可能是音乐家心理生理健康的有益保护因素,特别是在音乐院校和大学。

期刊介绍: Psychology of Music and SEMPRE provide an international forum for researchers working in the fields of psychology of music and music education, to encourage the exchange of ideas and to disseminate research findings. Psychology of Music publishes peer-reviewed papers directed at increasing the scientific understanding of any psychological aspect of music. These include studies on listening, performing, creating, memorising, analysing, describing, learning, and teaching, as well as applied social, developmental, attitudinal and therapeutic studies. Special emphasis is placed on studies carried out in naturalistic settings, especially those which address the interface between music psychology and music education.
