About article:
Since the late 20
th
century, psychology of music has been pursued as a cognitive, empirical,
data-driven discipline, building upon knowledge from musicology and psychology, as
well as from the cognitive sciences and neurosciences. Currently, it covers various areas of
research, including but not limited to music sensation, perception, cognition, and empirical
investigations of the links between music and emotion; developmental music psychology, the
issues of musical talent, the acquisition of musical skills, and the phenomenon of absolute
pitch; music performance, composition and improvisation; neural correlates of listening
to music and music-making; social aspects of music including its role in everyday life, in
social, ethnic and broader cultural groups, as well as in educational and therapeutic settings.
Empirical research in this specialised and interdisciplinary field has been underrepresented
within the domestic academic community. The task of building up a systematic research base
will require a collective effort of experts from related disciplines.
