In the second of this occasional series, I aim to bring the exciting world of music psychology to your attention.
Distinct from other branches of psychology, music psychology uncovers the powerful role music plays in our lives by exploring a broad range of topics including the increasing role of music in our everyday lives, thanks to our dear friend technology. To this end, much research explores the role of music on health and wellbeing.
A good dig around will also yield interesting insights into human cognition by considering emotion, language, memory, etc.
The three journals below are a good starting point if you're interested in doing some research of your own.
Psychology of Music
Musicae Scientiae
Psychomusicology
