Cortical and behavioral tracking of rhythm in music: Effects of pitch predictability, enjoyment, and expertise Open
The cortical tracking of stimulus features is a crucial neural requisite of how we process continuous music. We here tested whether cortical tracking of the beat, typically related to rhythm processing, is modulated by pitch predictability…

A model of time-varying music engagement Open
The current paper offers a model of time-varying music engagement, defined as changes in curiosity, attention and positive valence, as music unfolds over time. First, we present research (including new data) showing that listeners tend to …

Cortical and behavioural tracking of rhythm in music: Effects of pitch predictability, enjoyment, and expertise Open
The cortical tracking of stimulus features (such as the sound envelope) is a crucial neural requisite of how we process continuous music. We here tested whether cortical tracking of the beat, typically related to rhythm processing, is modu…

The Genesis of a Tune in the Mind: An Interview Study About Novel Involuntary Musical Imagery Repetition Open
Musical creativity, as a cognitive process, is inherently associated with musical imagery. Several composers have claimed to have composed music based on creative ideas that emerged involuntarily in their minds in the form of musical image…

Atonal Music as a Model for Investigating Exploratory Behavior Open
Atonal music is often characterized by low predictability stemming from the absence of tonal or metrical hierarchies. In contrast, Western tonal music exhibits intrinsic predictability due to its hierarchical structure and therefore, offer…

Comparing the aesthetic experience of classic–romantic and contemporary classical music: An interview study Open
Current models of aesthetic experience of music (AEM) have emerged in the recent years capitalizing on evidence from psychology and neuroscience research, thus modeling mainly cognitive and information processes in the brain. However, a la…

Prediction Under Uncertainty: Dissociating Sensory from Cognitive Expectations in Highly Uncertain Musical Contexts Open
Predictive models in the brain rely on the continuous extraction of regularities from the environment. These models are thought to be updated by novel information, as reflected in prediction error responses such as the mismatch negativity …

Atonal Music: Can Uncertainty Lead to Pleasure? Open
In recent years, the field of neuroaesthetics has gained considerable attention with music being a favored object of study. The majority of studies concerning music have, however, focused on the experience of Western tonal music (TM), whic…
