Another pub out from the violence in music project! Here we asked what attracts a group of non-fans to novel metal and rap music containing lyrical violence. How and why does such music draw people in? Take a look in @APA's Psychology of Popular Media: psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/2024-…

Is your music taste making you unproductive at work? @KirkOlsenPhD from @PsyMQ explains why listening to music while studying or trying to focus on work can be helpful for some people. #musicscience @Refinery29AU @CEPET_MQ refinery29.com/en-au/music-pr…
