Researchers at Appalachian State University believe that they've debunked what has been called the Mozart effect, a temporary increase in intelligence experienced after listening to a piano sonata written by the famed composer. After each listening session, the students completed problems which tested their spatial reasoning. This misconception, and the fact that the music used in the study was by Mozart, had an obvious appeal to those who valued this music; the Mozart Effect Tpb effect was thus widely reported.

S 1 : 26— The researchers at Appalachian State University were unable to duplicate the original "Mozart effect" results and found that the presence or absence of classical music didn't significantly affect student performance on tests. Having never studied those impacts too much, I guess I'll just have to take their word for that. These researchers alternately exposed a group of students to ten minutes Mozart Effect Tpb of a Mozart sonataa monotone Mozart Effect Tpb, and silence. For the most part, however, these claims are not substantiated by scientific research. The researchers found that the students scored higher on these tests after listening to Mozart.

Even though its pitch structure may appear rather straight- forward with its octatonic scale and the primary tonal center in C, and with referential (quasi-tonic) chords derived from the harmonic series, I intend to highlight intricate narrative trajectories and dramatic conflicts between various tonal centers (treated as actors/characters). These narratives can be related to certain archetypal plots, with the *1 Author contact information: [email protected] 131 New Sound 54, II/2019 conclusion that there exists ambiguity between the tragic and the ironic archetype. On a higher plane, similar conflict/interplay/ambiguity exists between different principles of pitch organization, i.e. the octatonic and functionally tonal. The unresolved ambi- guities and simultaneity of conflicting interpretations are examined from the psycho- analytic perspective, which postulates isomorphism between musical structures and processes and the processes unfolding in the unconscious mind. Finally, the effect of these narratives, especially the overwhelming impact induced by the excerpt from Mozart’s piano concerto is linked with the idea of sublime as conceived by Kant, but also including other approaches (Burke, Lyotard etc.).

  • Music to Be Used in Treating Mental Retardation and Mental Illness 1
    Running Head: MUSIC TO BE USED IN TREATING MENTAL RETARDATION AND MENTAL ILLNESS 1 Music to Be Used in Treating Mental Retardation and Mental Illness Jordan Mitchell Helena College Introduction to Psychology 100 Professor Curtis Peterson MUSIC TO BE USED IN TREATING MENTAL RETARDATION AND MENTAL ILLNESS 2 Mental retardation and mental illness have been forces for study for centuries. Doctors and psychologists alike have studied these things extensively. A plethora of studies, theories, hypotheses, treatments, and advances in the fields of medicine and psychology have been made and examined because of them. From doctors to scholars, mental retardation and illness have led to a myriad of possible treatment solutions formulated around them. I, like the many scholars and experts, seek to find a solution to these abnormalities. This paper will examine the meanings, causes, facets, and effects of mental retardation and illness on both medicine and psychology; it will also examine the effect of music, as well as the effects it has on the human brain. These examinations will subsequently be used to propose plausible treatments. Medicine and Mental Abnormality Webster’s New World Medical Dictionary defines “mental retardation” as: “The condition of having an IQ measured as below 70 to 75 and significant delays or lacks in at least two areas of adaptive skills” (Shiel and Stöppler). While this offers an informative, basic definition, it still only scratches the surface of what the conditions entail. These abnormalities range from simple, easy-to-handle conditions such as some forms of Asperger syndrome, a type of autism in which strange levels of focus and attention are observed, as well as inappropriate social communication (“Asperger Syndrome”).

  • Beyond Music and Beyond Words: a Psychoanalytic Inquiry
    STUDIJE O MUZIČKOJ UMETNOSTI/STUDIES ON MUSIC Miloš Zatkalik UDC 78.01 Univerzitet umetnosti u Beogradu doi:10.5937/ZbAkUm1801089Z Fakultet muzičke umetnosti Original scientific paper Aleksandar Kontić Visoka škola likovnih i primenjenih umetnosti u Beogradu. Beyond music and beyond words: A psychoanalytic inquiry Abstract. Relationships between language and music have always been lively and dynamic, from their syncretic unity in rituals, to setting text to music, verbal accounts of musical works, musicalization of literature, to abundance of linguistic and literary metaphors in discourse about music. Both language and music unfold in time; both possess a hierarchy of elements that are combined according to a set of rules. This paper will first indicate some linguistic (primarily syntactic) concepts that inform music theory. An analogy can also be established between the Chomskyan concept of the deep structure of language and Schenkerian Ursatz. Music, however, is not always organized along the lines of syntactic hierarchy. Music is also capable of simultaneity in a way inaccessible to language. In order to negotiate this ambiguous relationship between music and language, we invoke the psychoanalytic model of the mind. It postulates that the archaic experience of the world is associated with the auditory sphere. This auditory, pre-verbal mode of conceiving the world will gradually yield to subsequent developmental phases: the visual, and then verbal communication. The deep structure of music is necessarily analogous to verbal structures. However, owing to its pre-verbal origin, music is also organized according to the more archaic modes of mental functioning. For instance: the precepts of logic do not apply; music allows condensation much more readily than language.

  • Report of the President Daniel Sher Dean, College of Music University of Colorado-Boulder
    NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOLS OF MUSIC 2006 Annual Meeting Report of the President Daniel Sher Dean, College of Music University of Colorado-Boulder Last year our annual meeting centered on the issues of developing a positive future for art music, and we are continuing the theme this year. I chose this subject for my Report to you today, partly because it is surely one of the major challenges we face, and partly because I was inspired by Sam Hope’s beautifully concise and comprehensive paper, “Creating a Positive Future for Art Music,” which I read as a call to arms. In fact, I asked the NASM staff to place another copy of it in your packet again this year with the idea that you may find guidance and inspiration in it, as I have. My train of thought went this way: First, I wondered whether there is any point to considering that there is a cumulative effect to the activities and advocacy each of us engage in at our local level. And then, it occurred to me how important it might be to consider whether our advocacy role depends upon our abil- ity to understand the critically important, but often nuanced differences between music’s intrinsic and extrinsic values. This latter point seems especially important now, given the complex and often over- whelmingly commercial environment for messaging, branding, and marketing in which we live. I’ll frame these two issues by asking two fundamental questions: First, “What is our message?” Second, “How do we best advance it?” Given the challenges in messaging I referred to a moment ago, it seems essential that, first and foremost, we try our best to understand what comprises music’s intrinsic values, so as not to confuse them with extrinsic ones.

Music Psychotherapy with Refugee Survivors of Torture. Interpretations of Three Clinical Case Studies. Sibelius Academy, Studia Musica 44. Music Education Department. Doctoral dissertation, 245 pages. The clinical data for this research were derived from three music psychotherapy cases of torture victims who in 2002 to 2004 lived as either asylum seekers or refugees in Finland. The patients were all traumatized men, originating from Central Africa, South Asia, and the Middle East, who received music therapy sessions as part of their rehabilitation. Music therapy was offered weekly or bi-monthly for the duration of one to two years. Music listening techniques, such as projective listening, guided imagery, and free association were applied in a psychoanalytic frame of reference. Data included 116 automatically audio recorded and transcribed therapy sessions, totalling over 100 hours of real time data that were both qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed by the researcher. While previous studies have examined refugees and other trauma sufferers, and some articles have even discussed music therapy among torture survivors, this is one of the first empirical research studies of music therapy specifically among patients who are survivors of torture.

  • Exposure to Music and Cognitive Performance: Tests of Children And
    ARTICLE 5 Exposure to music and Psychology of Music Psychology of Music Copyright © 2007 cognitive performance: Society for Education, Music and Psychology Research tests of children and adults vol 35(1): 5‒19 [0305-7356 (200701) 35:1; 5‒19] 10.1177⁄0305735607068885 E. GLENN SCHELLENBERG http://pom.sagepub.com UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO, CANADA TAKAYUKI NAKATA NAGASAKI JUNSHIN CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY, JAPAN PATRICK G. HUNTER UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO, CANADA SACHIKO TAMOTO NAGASAKI JUNSHIN CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY, JAPAN ABSTRACT This article reports on two experiments of exposure to music and cognitive performance. In Experiment 1, Canadian undergraduates performed better on an IQ subtest (Symbol Search) after listening to an up-tempo piece of music composed by Mozart in comparison to a slow piece by Albinoni. The effect was evident, however, only when the two pieces also induced reliable differences in arousal and mood. In Experiment 2, Japanese 5-year-olds drew for longer periods of time after singing or hearing familiar children’s songs than after hearing Mozart or Albinoni, and their drawings were judged by adults to be more creative, energetic, and technically proficient. These results indicate that (1) exposure to different types of music can enhance performance on a variety of cognitive tests, (2) these effects are mediated by changes in emotional state, and (3) the effects generalize across cultures and age groups. KEYWORDS: cognition and emotion, cognitive ability, intellectual ability, Mozart effect, music and cognition, music listening The impact of music on listeners’ emotional state is well documented (e.g. Gabrielsson, 2001; Husain et al., 2002; Krumhansl, 1997; Peretz, 2001; Schmidt and Trainor, 2001; Sloboda and Juslin, 2001; Thayer and Levenson, 1983; Thompson et al., 2001), as is the effect of emotional state on participants’ performance on a wide variety of cognitive measures.

(España). ISSN: 0211-0040239 Apenas unas notas. La amusia de Freud y la sordera musical del círculo psicoanalítico de Viena Iván Sánchez Moreno* Universidad Autónoma de Madrid Norma Ramos Díaz Universitat de Barcelona Resumen Si la Viena de fi nales del siglo XIX fue una solfatara artística, más lo fue en el terreno musical. La música vivió los (des)encuentros entre el legado romántico-idealista y el nuevo dodecafonismo-racionalista, impregnando la cotidianidad de la burguesía austríaca. Freud no fue ajeno a la estética del momento, sin embargo... ...sin embargo, a lo largo de su obra apenas dedica unas notas a la música: unos escasos casos clínicos, un puñado de metáforas y algún comentario disperso sobre preferencias musicales y analogías operísticas. Además, sus referencias tratan el tema desde enfoques descriptivistas y no formales. Como apuntó, pa- rafraseando a Leonardo da Vinci, «no se puede amar ni odiar nada si antes no se ha llegado a su conoci- miento». La música, pues, como arte del presente y del aquí-y-ahora, escaparía del alcance metodológico del psicoanálisis aplicado. El texto analiza la relación entre psicoanálisis y música, revisando la obra de Freud y la de algunos de sus discípulos de la Sociedad Psicoanalítica de Viena. Asimismo, explora las posibles causas que llevarían a Freud a desterrar la música al silencio, y analiza por qué ese desinterés se heredó entre sus seguidores hasta bien entrado el siglo X.

  • FREUD and the PROBLEM with MUSIC: a HISTORY of LISTENING at the MOMENT of PSYCHOANALYSIS a Dissertation Presented to the Faculty
    FREUD AND THE PROBLEM WITH MUSIC: A HISTORY OF LISTENING AT THE MOMENT OF PSYCHOANALYSIS A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Michelle R. Duncan May 2013 © 2013 Michelle R. Duncan FREUD AND THE PROBLEM OF MUSIC: A HISTORY OF LISTENING AT THE MOMENT OF PSYCHOANALYSIS Michelle R. Duncan, Ph. D. Cornell University 2013 An analysis of voice in performance and literary theory reveals a paradox: while voice is generally thought of as the vehicle through which one expresses individual subjectivity, in theoretical discourse it operates as a placeholder for superimposed content, a storage container for acquired material that can render the subjective voice silent and ineffectual. In grammatical terms, voice expresses the desire or anxiety of the third rather than first person, and as such can be constitutive of both identity and alterity. In historical discourse, music operates similarly, absorbing and expressing cultural excess. One historical instance of this paradox can be seen in the case of Sigmund Freud, whose infamous trouble with music has less to do with aesthetic properties of the musical art form than with cultural anxieties surrounding him, in which music becomes a trope for differences feared to potentially “haunt” the public sphere. As a cultural trope, music gets mixed up in a highly charged dialectic between theatricality and anti-theatricality that emerges at the Viennese fin- de-Siècle, a dialectic that continues to shape both German historiography and the construction of modernity in contemporary scholarship.
