Abstract
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the differences in verbal descriptions of emotions induced by music between adults who are visually impaired (VI) and adults who have normal vision (NV). Thirty participants (15 VI, 15 NV) listened to music excerpts and were interviewed. A content analysis and a syntactic analysis were performed. Among the VI group, contextual verbalism was more highly observed compared to media or educational verbalism and a high ratio of affective words, expressions and descriptions via senses other than vision was found. The VI more frequently employed situational descriptions while the NV more often described episodic memories.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of New Music Research (JNMR) publishes material which increases our understanding of music and musical processes by systematic, scientific and technological means. Research published in the journal is innovative, empirically grounded and often, but not exclusively, uses quantitative methods. Articles are both musically relevant and scientifically rigorous, giving full technical details. No bounds are placed on the music or musical behaviours at issue: popular music, music of diverse cultures and the canon of western classical music are all within the Journal’s scope. Articles deal with theory, analysis, composition, performance, uses of music, instruments and other music technologies. The Journal was founded in 1972 with the original title Interface to reflect its interdisciplinary nature, drawing on musicology (including music theory), computer science, psychology, acoustics, philosophy, and other disciplines.
