Model offers predictions to guide empirical research on music’s emotional impact. This constructionist perspective provides ways to focus music and emotion research, supporting both applied directions & more personalised explanations of these experiences 4/5.

The Episode Model further breaks down the 5 episodes into 6 schemes: 1 emotional qualia, 2 mechanisms, 3 listening modes & agency, 4 reward & exposure, 5 musical meanings, and 6 functional contexts. These emphasise the situated and contextual nature of these episodes 3/5.

This framework places the functions and situations of music listening at the centre & identifies 5 unique emotional episodes: 1) Enjoyment–Distraction–Relaxation, 2) Connection–Belonging, 3) Focus–Motivation, 4) Personal Emotional Processing, and 5) Aesthetic–Interest–Awe 2/5.

New theory out! What do you get when you mix music and emotion regulation literature with the functions of music and explanations of music-induced emotions? You get a new theory called the 'Episode Model of Emotional Experiences of Music' 1/5.

📢 New paper in Memory & Cognition!📢. Musical pieces that have incongruent emotion cues (mode & timbre) are better remembered than congruent ones; consistent with desirable difficulty. Nice collab with Andrea Halpern from Bucknell University #musicscience.

Final #escom12 keynote given by Bruno Mesz who took us on a whirlwind tour of #crossmodal interactions with music. So many mappings (#smell, #shape, #colour, #taste) make sense with music but the level of explanation is not always easy to define #musicscience

Wonderful big data take on tempo and age by @Geoff_Luck & Alessandro Ansani that show a hockey stick function of performed tempo across age that matches the changes in spontaneous motor tempo across life-span #musicscience #escom12.

Engaging summary of chills while performing music by @s_bannister2113 & Emily Payne at #escom12: They highlight the many ways performers occasionally experience chills (feeling accomplishment, immersion, connecting with audience, togetherness,. ). What a great topic #musicscience.
