정서 전달에는 언어적 의사소통뿐만 아니라 비언어적 의사소통이 거론되곤 한다. 하지만 지금까지의 비언어적 의사소통 연구는 대부분 언어의 음향학적 연구나 얼굴표정 연구에 국한되었다. 또한 음악의 정서에 대한 연구는 음악적 구조 혹은 스타일과 여러 성격적 특질 및 행동 간의 관계, 혹은 생리적 효과 등 어떤 음악(what music)이 특정한 효과를 일으키느냐에 중점을 두고 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Gabrielsson & Juslin(1996)의 연구에 의거, 음악을 통하여 작곡가가 아닌 연주자의 의도된 정서가 청자에게 얼마나 잘 지각될 수 있는지 알아보고자 하였다. 봉 녕구의 가설은 다음과 같다; 첫째, 연주자의 정서적 의도는 음악의 모든 물리적 변인에 영향을 준다; 둘째, 청자는 의도된 정서를 지각하는 데 일반적으로 성공적이다; 셋째, 특정 정서는 다른 정서보다 더 잘 구분된다. 본 연구에 사용된 곡은 학습 효과를 배제하기 위하여 새롭게 전문 작곡가에 의해 작곡되었으며, 전문 연주자는 동일한 곡을 7종류의 정서(행복한, 슬픈, 화난, 두려운, 다정한, 엄숙한, 정서 표현 없음)를 표현하도록 연주하였다. 하나의 완전한 음악을 표현하기 위하여 각 곡은 멜로디(악기구성: 일렉트릭 기타, 베이스, 그랜드 피아노)와 리듬(드럼)을 포함하였다. 실험참가자는 각 곡을 듣고 7개의 정서 종류 각각에 점수를 평정하였다. 그 결과 이전 연구와 마찬가지로 청자는 연주자의 의도된 정서를 일반적으로 지각하는 데 성공하였으며 7개의 정서 중 특징적인 정서("행복한", "슬픈", "화난", "다정한") 는 다른 정서 보다 더 잘 구별되었다. 본 연구에 사용된 "두려운" 정서 곡의 음향분석 결과 소리 강도의 큰 변산이 특징이었다. 이는 이전 연구에서 "두려운" 정서의 특징인 타이밍의 큰 변산과 함께, "두려운" 정서가 '불규칙적이거나 변화가 커서 예측하기 어려운' 속성을 지니고 있음을 시사한다. 또한 "다정한" 정서에 대해서 본 연구에서는 다른 모든 정서와 유의미한 차이를 보인 반면, 이전 연구에서는 "슬픈"과 유의미한 차이가 없었다. 이는 본 연구에 쓰인 "다정한" 정서의 곡은 리듬 패턴을 다른 정서 버전과는 다르게 보사노바 리듬을 사용하였다. 이전 연구와는 다르게 빠른 템포였음에도 불구하고 구별이 잘 된 이유는 이와 같이 장르 특징적인 영향이 컸기 때문이라고 할 수 있다. 이는 연주자나 음악 스타일 자체의 성격이 정서 판단에 있어 큰 영향을 준다는 사실을 시사한다. 종합적으로 음악을 통한 정서 전달에 있어 연주자, 청자, 악기, 음악 스타일의 차이가 영향을 줄 수 있다는 사실을 확인하였으며 이러한 결과는 Scherer & Oshinsky(1977)가 언급하였듯 음악 연주가 다른 비언어적 의사소통 방법과 공유하는 특징이 있음을 시사한다.

The purpose of this study was to examine music-color association response(MCAR) of people with visual impairment through music-emotion scale and music-color scale. The study was conducted on 60 participants(30 congenital/ 30 adventitious) who are using services of two welfare centers at S and B cities. For this, four basic emotions (happiness, sadness, anger, and fear) mediated by music were selected, and MCAR to emotion-inducing music were analyzed through self-report method. As a result, first, there were found contrasts in MCAR between happiness and sadness according to type of emotion, however, similar in anger and fear. Second, in MCAR among three variables of the music-emotion scale(valence, arousal and intensity), valence was congruent with MCAR according to type of emotion, arousal marked high scores in negative emotions, and scores of intensity in happiness and sadness were higher than those in anger and fear. Third, there were no significant differences between two groups of people with congenital and adventitious visual impairments. It is meaningful that this study showed the MCAR can be mediated by music through investigating those of people with visual impairment.

The purpose of this study is to develop Music Recall Technique for affect modification using programmed series of classical music, and further to apply the technique as therapeutic intervention for clients with anorexia nervosa. Music Recall Technique is composed of two sub-technique: first one is 'Music Recall(MR)' which is the way to reproduce of existing music on one's head and mind after listening to the music, and second intervention is 'Creative Music Recall(CMR)' which is the way to modify the exposed musical pieces or newly learned musical pieces. A client with anorexia nervosa with severe anxiety, anger and depression participated in this case study. The MRT is implemented in different stages pertaining to client's level of utilizing the music recall skill for the period of 10 sessions. Situations eliciting negative emotions were identified and music recalling was reinforced for the pertaining situation in order for the negative emotion to be coped and reduced by the end of session time. The client participated for 10 sessions, and was asked to fill out self-report on the affect change using MRT. Visual Analogue Scale was used for pre and post test for each session to measure the self perceived level of negative affect. State-trait anxiety inventory was also used to measure the anxiety level following the implementation of MRT. As results, negative emotions, such as anxiety, anger and depression were modified during stimulative-sedative music recall process. These negative emotions were decreased mostly during stimulative MR, especially, in the beginning process. Each negative affect on negative situation measured by VAS during each and entire session have been decreased. Negative emotion measured by state-trait anxiety inventory, state-trait anger expression inventory, and hopelessness-depression inventory were decreased as well. The results suggest that stimulative music using contemporary classic music was effective in reduction and modification of negative affect such as anxiety, anger and depression. It shows that Music Recall Technique can be a meaningful intervention for affect modification, and further it can be utilized as self-help in the outside of music therapy setting.

This essay researches which affective responses can be made from musical elements of Korean traditional music through adjective description about mood responses. It results that traditional mode which are classified into Pyoungjo and Gyemounjo hardly have any the affective responses, while major and minor mode, tempo, tone color, vertical and horizontal texture have some effects on particular affects. Meanwhile, newly composed Korean traditional music have more effects for as inducing affective responses rather than works as old Korean traditional music. As well as Western music, Korean traditional music induces different affective responses to each musical element. As such, this aspects can be adopted to different realms like background music, commercial music, music therapy and so on.

The purpose of this study was to examine the perceived emotion of music according to cognitive styles of music listening. A total of 91 music-related graduate students participated in this study. They were given a questionnaire about perceived emotions of music, musical elements, and Music Empathizing-Music Systemizing Inventory. To analyze statistically, Descriptive statistics, paired t-test, ANalysis Of VAriance (ANOVA), multi-variate analysis, and Pearson correlation analysis were conducted. Results showed that participants had relatively universal experience in perceived emotions of both types of music, and also showed that musical elements contributed to the experience differed by cognitive styles of music listening.

The purpose of this study was to investigate how children with cochlear implants (CI) perceive emotion in music depending on mode and tempo cues, and to compare them to NH children. Participants in this study included 13 CI children who were implanted with either unilateral or bilateral cochlear implants aged between 7 and 13 years, 36 NH children, and 20 NH adults. The musical stimuli used in this study were piano recordings in either major or minor mode, with tempos of 130 bpm and 56 bpm. A comparison of the emotion perception levels of NH children and NH adults before the experiment showed that there was no significant difference between the two groups. Meanwhile, the way they perceive different emotions from each music condition varies, in that CI children perceived all music conditions except as happy, while NH children perceived music in a major key as happy and music in a minor key as sad. It supports that CI children tend to rely primarily on tempo cues to process and identify emotional information from music, which is contrary to NH children. It is important to note that this study enhanced and specified the understanding of how CI children perceive music emotion and use specific musical elements in the process. These findings indicate baseline data on emotion perception in music in CI children.

The purpose of this study was to validate the Korean version of RESPECT-Music, which measures personal, social and cultural function of music, and to examine the correlation between the measured RESPECT data and the data measured from other scales for emotions. A survey was conducted with two separate groups of undergraduate students. Exploratory factor analysis with sample A (N=212) and confirmatory factor analysis and correlation analyses with sample B (N=296) were conducted. The result of exploratory factor analysis generated 10 factors as influential factors in music use, which was the similar results to the original scale: background, values, focus, dancing, family bonding, cultural identity, political attitudes, venting, emotional expression and social bonding. In the confirmatory factor analysis, this 35-item measurement was found to obtain adequate internal consistency and reliability. In addition, the correlations were found with other scales measuring emotional adjustment. Specifically, RESPECT showed a positive correlation with scales for positive affect, reappraisal, negative mood regulation and repair. Among the generated factors as music function, dancing was highly correlated with emotional adjustment, while political attitudes was negatively correlated with emotional adjustment. The results indicate that music use in our everyday lives is intercorrelated with the intrapersonal and interpersonal motives and emotional adjustment, while the function of music that influences cultural identity was not associated with the level of emotional adjustment. Implications for future studies were also suggested.

With increasing interest in the emotional responses to music, research on the regulatory mechanisms of music has been ongoing. This study examines the fidelity of music emotion regulation (MER) studies by analyzing the quality of rationales provided for using music to induce emotional regulation. A total of 45 internationally published studies were collected for review, and analysis was conducted on criteria related to the use of music, including duration, number of pieces, selection rationale, and the selecting agent. Despite the research objectives aiming to investigate the emotional regulation effects of music, it was found that the majority of studies lacked specific information about the music used, and there was weak consistency among the studies. Additionally, reliable evidence for music activities, music selection, and music implementation time was not provided, and there was a lack of logical basis for the regulatory mechanisms of music. The results of this study imply the necessity for fidelity to the rationale of music emotion regulation to establish itself as a research area. Such rigorous fidelity will contribute to increasing the replicability and integrity of research on the therapeutic uniqueness of music.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate how accurately children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD; n = 9) recognized four basic emotions (i.e., happiness, sadness, anger, and fear) following musical or visual cues. Their performance was compared to that of typically developing children (TD; n = 14). All of the participants were between the ages of 7 and 13 years. Four musical cues and four visual cues for each emotion were presented to evaluate the participants' ability to recognize the four basic emotions. The results indicated that there were significant differences between the two groups between the musical and visual cues. In particular, the ASD group demonstrated significantly less accurate recognition of the four emotions compared to the TD group. However, the emotion recognition of both groups was more accurate following the musical cues compared to the visual cues. Finally, for both groups, their greatest recognition accuracy was for happiness following the musical cues. In terms of the visual cues, the ASD group exhibited the greatest recognition accuracy for anger. This initial study support that musical cues can facilitate emotion recognition in children with ASD. Further research is needed to improve our understanding of the mechanisms involved in emotion recognition and the role of sensory cues play in emotion recognition for children with ASD.

The purpose of this study was to investigate listener's affective responses to different vocal registers and modes in terms of valence (i.e., negative to positive affect) and arousal (i.e., low to high energy level). The data were collected from four different conditions (i.e., higher and lower registers paired with major and minor modes). A total of 188 female college students participated in the survey online and rated their perceived valence and arousal levels on a visual analogue scale after listening to each excerpt. The two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was administered for data analysis. The results revealed that there were significant differences in the affective responses to the two vocal registers, showing that the arousal was more affected by the register than the valence. Secondly, mode had statistically significant impact on both valence and arousal while weighing more on valence. Further, there was significant interaction effect of vocal register and mode on valence, but not on arousal. Results also displayed that listeners had the most negative valence when listening to the excerpt of minor mode in higher register, while having the lowest arousal when listening to the excerpt of minor mode in lower register. These findings imply that it is important to consider the vocal range as well as the musical mode when selecting music for appreciation.
