Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Pedagogy - Pedagogic Psychology, grade: 93.00, language: English, abstract: Every student go through different kinds of stress. One of the most stressful tasks of students is to pass each examination they have to face. Teachers play crucial role in helping their students perform well in their exams. Indeed teachers are thinking of effective and innovative teaching strategies that would address the various needs of the students. One of the strategies in mind is using music in classroom activities. Music is one of the few activities that involve using the whole brain. It is intrinsic to all cultures and can have surprising benefit. This study aimed at finding out the level of stress and classroom performance of college freshmen who listened and did not listen to acoustic music while taking the teacher-made test in General Psychology. Every student goes through different kinds of stress. One of the most stressful tasks of students is to pass each examination they have to face. The respondents of this study were from two sections of General Psychology class of the Philippine Merchant Marine School. From one section, out of thirty-two students, thirty were selected. Similarly, from the second section, thirty from forty students were selected as respondents of the study. To measure the level of stress, the researcher referred to Stress Assessment from Elizabeth Scott's "Your Guide to Stress Management" and from "Understanding Stress: Signs, Symptoms, Cause, and Effects". It consists of fourteen items modified and suited for the purpose of the study. To measure the performance in General Psychology Test, two sets of teacher-made test, each consisting of thirty questions were used which were given on two separate occasions. The data were gathered and interpreted using appropriate statistical tools.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of this study was to prove that listening to music prior to a major musical performance could help reduce Musical Performance Anxiety. As a result of this study, musicians at any level, but especially collegiate, would have another coping strategy to help mitigate personal levels of nervousness and apprehension. The following research questions helped guide the process of this study: (1) Does listening to music prior to a jury performance reduce musical performance anxiety? (2) Do those individuals in the music condition perform better than expected on jury performances? (3) Does listening to music prior to an end of the quarter performance examination affect adjudicator's perceptions of performer anxiety levels? Other objectives and secondary research questions are as follows: (4) How do collegiate musicians rank in terms of levels of state and trait anxiety compared to the average person as reported by Charles Spielberger in the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory? (5) What did those participants in the music condition of this study choose to listen to prior to their performance? Students were given the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAID-B) to assess and compare general anxiety levels versus those documented immediately prior to end-of-the-quarter musical performances known as juries. Participants were divided into two groups: (1) Music condition where students listened to music prior to their juries and (2) Control condition where the students prepared for their jury like they normally would. It was found that students that listened to music prior to juries had a lower state anxiety than those that did not listen to music. Given that the hypothesis margin of error was p is less than or equal to 0.05 a statistical significant relationship was indeed found. It can be deduced that listening to music prior to a major musical performance such as a jury can reduce levels of musical performance anxiety.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music's ability to express and arouse emotions is a mystery that has fascinated both experts and laymen at least since ancient Greece. The predecessor to this book 'Music and Emotion' (OUP, 2001) was critically and commercially successful and stimulated much further work in this area. In the years since publication of that book, empirical research in this area has blossomed, and the successor to 'Music and Emotion' reflects the considerable activity in this area. The Handbook of Music and Emotion offers an 'up-to-date' account of this vibrant domain. It provides comprehensive coverage of the many approaches that may be said to define the field of music and emotion, in all its breadth and depth. The first section offers multi-disciplinary perspectives on musical emotions from philosophy, musicology, psychology, neurobiology, anthropology, and sociology. The second section features methodologically-oriented chapters on the measurement of emotions via different channels (e.g., self report, psychophysiology, neuroimaging). Sections three and four address how emotion enters into different aspects of musical behavior, both the making of music and its consumption. Section five covers developmental, personality, and social factors. Section six describes the most important applications involving the relationship between music and emotion. In a final commentary, the editors comment on the history of the field, summarize the current state of affairs, as well as propose future directions for the field. The only book of its kind, The Handbook of Music and Emotion will fascinate music psychologists, musicologists, music educators, philosophers, and others with an interest in music and emotion (e.g., in marketing, health, engineering, film, and the game industry). It will be a valuable resource for established researchers in the field, a developmental aid for early-career researchers and postgraduate research students, and a compendium to assist students at various levels. In addition, as with its predecessor, it will also attract interest from practising musicians and lay readers fascinated by music and emotion.

Book excerpt: What is sensory marketing and why is it interesting and also important? Krishna defines it as marketing that engages the consumers’ senses and affects their behaviors. In this edited book, the authors discuss how sensory aspects of products, i.e., the touch , taste, smell, sound, and look of the products, affect our emotions, memories, perceptions, preferences, choices, and consumption of these products. We see how creating new sensations or merely emphasizing or bringing attention to existing sensations can increase a product’s or service’s appeal. The book provides an overview of sensory marketing research that has taken place thus far. It should facilitate sensory marketing by practitioners and also can be used for research or in academic classrooms.

Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together

A selective review of the most pertinent literature is included in each chapter. The total reference listing for the book extends to 60 pages.This work is necessarily multidisciplinary, reflecting the many dimensions of stress-related problems and their situation within a complex social context.

Book excerpt: Music is one of the most universal ways of expression and communication in human life and is present in the everyday lives of people of all ages and from all cultures around the world. Music represents an enjoyable activity in and of itself, but its influence goes beyond simple amusement. Listening to music, singing, playing, composing and improvising, individually and collectively, are common activities for many people: these activities not only allow the expression of personal inner states and feelings, but also can bring many positive effects to those who engage in them. There is an increasing wealth of literature concerning the wider benefits of musical activity, and research in the sciences associated with music suggests that there are many dimensions of human life (physical, social, psychological—including cognitive and emotional) which can be affected positively by music. The impact that musical activity has on human life can be found in different processes, including a transfer of learning from the musical to another cognitive domain. Abilities that have been developed through music education and training may also be effectively applied in other cognitive tasks. Engagement in successful music activity may also have a positive impact on social skills and social inclusion, thus supporting the participation of the individual in collective and collaborative musical events. The promotion of social participation through music can foster many kinds of inclusion, including intercultural, intergenerational, and support for those who are differently abled. The aim of this Research Topic is to present a diverse range of original articles that investigate and discuss, in different ways, the crucial role that musical activity can play in human development and well-being.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dementia is the most significant health issue facing our aging population. With no cure to date, there is an urgent need for the development of interventions that can alleviate symptoms of dementia and ensure optimal well-being for people with dementia and their caregivers. There is accumulating evidence that music is a highly effective, non-pharmacological treatment for various symptoms of dementia at all stages of disease progression. In its various forms, music (as a medium for formal therapy or an informal activity) engages widespread brain regions, and in doing so, can promote numerous benefits, including triggering memories, enhancing relationships, affirming a sense of self, facilitating communication, reducing agitation, and alleviating depression and anxiety. This book outlines the current research and understanding of the use of music for people with dementia, from internationally renowned experts in music therapy, music psychology, and clinical neuropsychology.
