Editor's Note:
The present work explored music’s meaning from the perspective of adolescents’ psychosocial development and mood regulation. The aim was to increase understanding of psychological goals and processes related to affective experiences of music in everyday life. The research consisted of three sub-studies proceeding from a broad exploration of music’s psychological functions toward a specific understanding of mood-regulatory processes. The first study was a meta-analytical review of previous research. It resulted in a theoretical categorization of four areas in which music supports adolescent psychosocial development: identity, agency, interpersonal relationships, and emotions. The study provided a theoretical framework for studying music’s psychological functionality, and demonstrated the centrality of mood-related meanings. The second study focused on defining the concept of music-related mood regulation. The data were gathered by means of group interviews and follow-up forms, and then analyzed using grounded theory methods. As a result, a theoretical model of adolescents’ use of music for mood regulation was constructed. Mood regulatory goals were divided into two main goals, mood improvement and mood control, and seven regulatory strategies, entertainment, revival, strong sensation, diversion, discharge, mental work, and solace. The model discusses issues that affect the selection of strategies, musical activities that are used to realize them, and associated mood changes. The third study was a cross-sectional survey in which a scale for assessing the use of music for mood regulation was developed based on the regulatory strategies. Confirmatory factor analyses of the data supported the measurement model, and a pioneering scale Music in Mood Regulation (MMR) was established. The scale was used to study differences in the use of music for mood regulation, and the results showed that girls use music for mood regulation more than boys, and older adolescents more than younger ones. The use of music for mood regulation was also related to musical background, musical preferences, and general mood regulation abilities. In sum, the current work was a systematic exploration of psychological processes related to the use of music for mood regulation. It promoted understanding of the functionality of music in the context of adolescent development, affective experiences, and self-regulation.Academic dissertation. The book also includes the following original papers: "The psychological functions of music in adolescence", "The strategies for regulating mood by musical activities in adolescence", "The role of music in adolescent's mood regulation", "Differences in adolescents' use of music in mood regulation", "Music in mood regulation".
