The psychology of music : an overview : an honors thesis (HONRS 499)

Abstract

Relative to other areas of psychology, not a great deal of literature is available on research pertaining or even relating to music. A history of the subfield known as the psychology of music (or music psychology), in particular, does not to my knowledge exist in the form of a single source. Here, I provide an overview of events and concepts that define the study of music psychology.
