Abstract

People use music to regulate their emotions in a variety of ways. Whereas some of these strategies are conceptually and empirically distinct from one another, other strategies are not wholly distinguishable. We examined the distinctiveness among strategies used to regulate emotions via music listening. College students ( N = 274) completed an online questionnaire with closed-ended and open-ended items designed to measure their use of music to regulate emotions and other music- and emotion-related measures. Confirmatory factor analyses suggested that some of the strategies in Saarikallio’s taxonomy are not completely distinct from one another, yet correlations between these strategies and other functions of music listening and absorption in music suggested a fair amount of empirical similarity among most of these functions. Qualitative analysis suggested that, in addition to strategies described by Saarikallio, people use music to remember, to feel calm, and to match their mood. This mixed-methods research therefore suggests that both constricting and expanding prior taxonomies of strategies to regulate emotions via music could be warranted.

用音乐让心情好起来：不同的情绪调节策略真的截然不同吗？

人们利用音乐调节情绪的方式多种多样。其中一些策略在概念上和经验上是相互区别的，而另一些策略则无法完全区分。我们研究了通过听音乐来调节情绪的策略之间的区别。大学生（N = 274）填写了一份在线问卷，其中包含封闭式和开放式项目，旨在测量他们使用音乐调节情绪的情况以及其他与音乐和情绪相关的测量。确认性因素分析表明，Saarikallio分类法中的某些策略并不完全相互独立，但这些策略与音乐聆听和音乐吸收的其他功能之间的相关性表明，大多数这些功能之间存在相当程度的经验相似性。定性分析表明，除了 Saarikallio 所描述的策略外，人们还利用音乐来记忆、平静心情和配合情绪。因此，这项混合方法研究表明，有必要对之前通过音乐调节情绪的策略分类法进行收缩和扩展。

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.
