Abstract

Music that evokes strong emotional responses is often experienced as autobiographically salient. Through emotional experience, the musical features of songs could also contribute to their subjective autobiographical saliency. Songs which have been popular during adolescence or young adulthood (ages 10–30) are more likely to evoke stronger memories, a phenomenon known as a reminiscence bump. In the present study, we sought to determine how song-specific age, emotional responsiveness to music, musical features, and subjective memory functioning contribute to the subjective autobiographical saliency of music in older adults. In a music listening study, 112 participants rated excerpts of popular songs from the 1950s to the 1980s for autobiographical saliency. Additionally, they filled out questionnaires about emotional responsiveness to music and subjective memory functioning. The song excerpts’ musical features were extracted computationally using MIRtoolbox. Results showed that autobiographical saliency was best predicted by song-specific age and emotional responsiveness to music and musical features. Newer songs that were more similar in rhythm to older songs were also rated higher in autobiographical saliency. Overall, this study contributes to autobiographical memory research by uncovering a set of factors affecting the subjective autobiographical saliency of music.
情感和音乐因素结合歌曲特定年龄预测老年人音乐的主观自传体显著性
能唤起强烈情感反应的音乐通常具有自传性。通过情感体验,歌曲的音乐特征也有助于其主观的自传体显著性。在青春期或青年期(10-30岁)流行的歌曲更有可能唤起更强烈的记忆,这种现象被称为“回忆隆起”。在本研究中,我们试图确定歌曲的特定年龄、对音乐的情感反应、音乐特征和主观记忆功能如何影响老年人对音乐的主观自传体显著性。在一项音乐听力研究中,112名参与者对20世纪50年代至80年代流行歌曲的选段进行了自传式显著性评分。此外,他们还填写了关于音乐情绪反应和主观记忆功能的问卷。使用MIRtoolbox计算提取歌曲节选的音乐特征。结果表明,自传式显著性最能通过歌曲特定年龄和对音乐和音乐特征的情感反应来预测。节奏与老歌更相似的新歌在自传体显著性方面也得到了更高的评价。本研究揭示了影响音乐主观自传体显著性的一系列因素,为自传体记忆研究做出了贡献。

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.
