情绪的自我调节被认为是所有年龄段参与音乐的最重要原因之一。然而,关于这种对音乐的自我调节是如何在整个生命周期中发展的,我们知之甚少。通过定性研究,初步探讨了成年期情绪自我调节的中心过程和策略。通过小组访谈收集数据,并通过定性内容分析进行分析。受访者共21人,年龄在21-70岁之间。结果明确了成人音乐相关情绪自我调节的概念特征,揭示了两个主要趋势。首先,监管的基本性质,包括各种监管目标和策略,在整个成年期保持高度相似。其次,一些变化也很明显,它们可以进一步分为三种类型:年龄变化、事件相关波动和退休过渡。这项研究提供了与音乐相关的情感体验在成年期人类行为和社会心理发展中作为一个功能性和有意义的部分所扮演的角色的知识。
Emotional self-regulation is acknowledged as one of the most important reasons for musical engagement at all ages. Yet there is little knowledge on how this self-regulatory use of music develops across the life span. A qualitative study was conducted to initially explore central processes and strategies of the emotional self-regulation during adulthood. The data were collected through group interviews and analyzed through qualitative content analysis. Participants were 21 interviewees with an age range of 21-70 years. The results clarified conceptual features of music-related emotional self-regulation in adulthood and revealed two main trends. First, the basic nature of regulation, including various regulatory goals and strategies, remained highly similar throughout adulthood. Second, however, several changes were also evident, and they could be further categorized into three types: change by age, event-related fluctuations, and retirement transition. The study provided knowledge about the role of music-related emotional experiences as a functional and meaningful part of human behavior and psychosocial development during adulthood.
