Emotional and motivational uses of music in sports and exercise: A questionnaire study among athletes (2013, background): “…received much attention recently, and evidence from many sources indicates that music is capable of inducing emotion in listeners (for reviews, see Juslin & Laukka, 2004; Juslin & Västfjäll, 2008).1 Studies on people’s self-reports of their everyday music-listening habits have revealed that…”
Emotional and psychophysiological responses to tempo, mode, and percussiveness (2011, background): “People listen to music because it can make them feel comfortable, relaxed, or happy (DeNora, 2000; Juslin & Laukka, 2004; Juslin & Sloboda, 2010).”
Music as emotional self-regulation throughout adulthood (2011, background): “Furthermore, music research has shown that the importance of music is strongly linked to enjoyment and positive feelings (Juslin & Laukka, 2004; Saarikallio & Erkkilä, 2007; Van Goethem, 2009).”
If you’re happy and you know it: Music engagement and subjective wellbeing (2017, background): “Perhaps most importantly, engagement with music is often associated with emotion regulation, with people turning to music as a strategy to help manage and regulate their mood (Chin & Rickard, 2014; Juslin & Laukka, 2004; Sloboda & O’Neill, 2001; van Goethem & Sloboda, 2011).”
The functions of music for affect regulation (2011, background): “Juslin and colleagues (Juslin & Laukka, 2004; Juslin, 2009; Juslin & Västfjäll, 2008) add to these factors a consideration of various mechanisms by which music could induce or evoke emotions.”
Liking unfamiliar music: Effects of felt emotion and individual differences. (2012, background): “In other words, music arouses emotions (Juslin & Laukka, 2004; Juslin & Västfjäll, 2008), and emotions in an aesthetic context are typically experienced as pleasurable.”
The neuroaesthetics of music. (2013, background): “People value music primarily for aesthetic reasons: for the emotions it generates, for triggering memories, and for its beauty (Juslin & Laukka, 2004; Laukka, 2007; McDonald & Stewart, 2008).”
Emotional reactions to music in a nationally representative sample of Swedish adults (2011, methodology): “It is notable that this motive was far more common here than in a previous survey study, which did not use a random and representative sample of participants (Juslin & Laukka, 2004).”
Are the Emotions Expressed in Music Genre-specific? An Audio-based Evaluation of Datasets Spanning Classical, Film, Pop and Mixed Genres (2011, background): “…dimensions of this bipolar scale are typically dubbed as positive and negative, but even negative affects are sometimes considered to be enjoyable within the context of music (Juslin & Laukka, 2004; Zentner et al., 2008) and therefore positive—which could explain the confusion within this concept.”
Why is sad music pleasurable? A possible role for prolactin (2011, background): “In a questionnaire study, Juslin and Laukka (2004) found that sadness was the eighth most commonly reported affective state induced by music (after happy, relaxed, calm, moved, nostalgic, pleasurable, and loving).”
Music-listening in everyday life: Devices and choice (2015, background): “Similarly, Juslin and Laukka (2004) highlighted the need for research investigating emotional responses to music to consider the context of the experience from the listener’s perspective (not the musician’s perspective), and North et al. (2004) suggested that future research should examine affect be”
Towards a holistic model of functions of music listening across cultures: A culturally decentred qualitative approach (2012, background): “Most prominent among them, Juslin and colleagues (Juslin & Laukka, 2004; Juslin & Sloboda, 2001) examined how emotions in music are perceived and how music triggers emotions in the listener.”
Feelings and Perceptions of Happiness and Sadness Induced by Music: Similarities, Differences, and Mixed Emotions (2010, background): “Moreover, associations between specific musical characteristics and emotions are well established (for reviews, see Gabrielsson & Juslin, 2003; Juslin & Laukka, 2004), especially for happiness and sadness.”
