Questions | More Information

The main objective of the present study is to investigathe whether songs that are deemed to be communal (i.e., usually experienced in a communal setting, such as Take me Out to the Ballgame and baseball games) are better at regulating mood and affect than other types of music. We asked you to write a negative autobiographical memory in order to bring your mood down (sorry about that!) to see which song would work better at repairing it.
