Abstract

Recent research suggests that music listening elicits chills during intense moments. In addition, anticipative physiological and neural responses prior to the chills occur. Those responses can be interpreted as craving for the particularly intense moments. The concept of craving originates in addiction research and describes the urge to consume a substance or to execute a behavior. The current study aims to investigate craving for music and its psychological correlates. Participants’ craving for music was assessed via questionnaire before and after they listened to a song. In addition, earworms before and after music listening were assessed. Finally, personality traits were measured. The results indicated that craving for music significantly increased after listening to a song. The same was observed for earworms. Craving for music and earworms were significantly related, and baseline craving was also related to psychoticism and openness to experience. The results emphasize that craving reactions not only occur within a piece of music but also increase after listening to music. This is in line with the findings from addiction research. The relationship between craving for music with other psychological states and traits opens perspectives for future research.

听完音乐后对音乐的渴望会增加，这与耳虫和性格有关

最近的研究表明，在紧张的时刻听音乐会让人不寒而栗。此外，在寒战发生之前，预期的生理和神经反应。这些反应可以解释为对特别紧张时刻的渴望。渴望的概念起源于成瘾研究，描述了消费某种物质或执行某种行为的冲动。目前的研究旨在调查对音乐的渴望及其心理相关性。参与者在听一首歌之前和之后通过问卷来评估他们对音乐的渴望。此外，还对听音乐前后的耳虫进行了评估。最后，他们测量了性格特征。结果表明，听了一首歌后，对音乐的渴望显著增加。在耳虫身上也观察到了同样的情况。对音乐的渴望和对耳朵虫的渴望显著相关，基线渴望也与精神状态和对经验的开放性有关。结果强调，渴望反应不仅发生在一首音乐中，而且在听音乐后也会增加。这与成瘾研究的结果一致。对音乐的渴望与其他心理状态和特征之间的关系为未来的研究开辟了前景。

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.
