Abstract:
Coping is a survival mechanism of living organisms. It is not merely reactive, but also involves making sense of the environment by rendering sensory information into percepts that have meaning in the context of an organism\'s cognitions. Music listening, on the other hand, is a complex task that embraces sensory, physiological, behavioral, and cognitive levels of processing. Being both a dispositional process that relies on our evolutionary toolkit for coping with the world and a more elaborated skill for sense-making, it goes beyond primitive action-reaction couplings by the introduction of higher-order intermediary variables between sensory input and effector reactions. Consideration of music-listening from the perspective of coping treats music as a sound environment and listening as a process that involves exploration of this environment as well as interactions with the sounds. Several issues are considered in this regard such as the conception of music as a possible stressor, the role of adaptive listening, the relation between coping and reward, the importance of self-regulation strategies in the selection of music, and the instrumental meaning of music in the sense that it can be used to modify the internal and external environment of the listener.
摘要:
应对是生物体的一种生存机制。它不仅仅是反应性的,但也涉及通过将感官信息转化为在生物体认知背景下具有意义的感知来理解环境。听音乐,另一方面,是一项包含感官的复杂任务,生理,行为,和认知水平的处理。既是一个依赖我们的进化工具包来应对世界的性格过程,又是一个更精细的感官创造技能,通过在感觉输入和效应器反应之间引入高阶中间变量,它超越了原始的动作-反应耦合。从应对的角度考虑听音乐,将音乐视为声音环境,而将听音乐视为涉及探索该环境以及与声音的相互作用的过程。在这方面考虑了几个问题,例如音乐作为可能的压力源的概念,适应性倾听的作用,应对和奖励之间的关系,自我调节策略在音乐选择中的重要性,以及音乐的器乐意义,即它可以用来修改听众的内部和外部环境。
