无论是在日常生活中还是在临床环境中，音乐都可以成为唤起自传式记忆的有力线索。要了解音乐可能在多大程度上特权地获取我们个人历史的各个方面，需要与其他类型的记忆进行批判性比较，并探索音乐引发的自传体记忆(MEAM)在不同个体之间的差异。我们在657名参与者的在线样本中比较了MEAM的提取特征、内容和情绪与电视诱发的自传体记忆(Team)，这些参与者在年龄、性别、收入和教育程度上代表了英国成年人。每个参与者都报告了最近一次MEAM的详细情况和最近的团队经历。与团队相比，MEAM表现出显著更多的情节重温、个人意义和社会内容，并引发更积极和强烈的情绪。MEAM和团队之间的大部分差异持续存在于对反应子集的分析中，在这些反应中，音乐和电视提示在熟悉度上相匹配。年龄和性别的影响较小，并且在MEAM和团队中都是一致的。这些结果表明，与电视相比，音乐提示的自然发生的记忆在现象学上存在差异，这些记忆在整个成年期都保持着。这些发现是在自传体记忆、音乐功能和健康衰老的理论描述的背景下讨论的。
Music CAN BE A POTENT CUE FOR AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL memories in both everyday and clinical settings. Understanding the extent to which music may have privileged access to aspects of our personal histories requires critical comparisons to other types of memories and exploration of how music-evoked autobiographical memories (MEAMs) vary across individuals. We compared the retrieval characteristics, content, and emotions of MEAMs to television-evoked autobiographical memories (TEAMs) in an online sample of 657 participants who were representative of the British adult population on age, gender, income, and education. Each participant reported details of a recent MEAM and a recent TEAM experience. MEAMs exhibited significantly greater episodic reliving, personal significance, and social content than TEAMs, and elicited more positive and intense emotions. The majority of these differences between MEAMs and TEAMs persisted in an analysis of a subset of responses in which the music and television cues were matched on familiarity. Age and gender effects were smaller, and consistent across both MEAMs and TEAMs. These results indicate phenomenological differences in naturally occurring memories cued by music as compared to television that are maintained across adulthood. Findings are discussed in the context of theoretical accounts of autobiographical memory, functions of music, and healthy aging.
