• Music and communication in music psychology (2014, background): “We can interpret this immediacy as arising from a tendency to experience the acoustical signals entailed by the music as though there were a necessary causal connection between the signals’ structure and the affective and motivational states of their producers (see Cross, 2008, 2009).”
• The evolutionary nature of musical meaning (2009, background): “However, as I have proposed elsewhere (Cross, 2008), recent theories of animal vocal communication might afford some clues as to music’s efficacy in influencing the affective states of listeners.”
