Party Talk Study

Party Talk Study is about the social functions of music. Music can support interpersonal relationships, for instance, by creating a special bond between you and other people sharing your taste in music. With this experiment, I aim to find out whether people like each other more and relate to each other better if they share musical preferences. Currently, this study is only available in German. Thus, all German speaking people are welcome to participate. It only takes 5 minutes to fill in the survey. [Klick hier um teilzunehmen]

This homepage introduces the work, research, and passion of a cross-cultural music psychologist.
Cross-cultural psychology of music is a new area of psychological inquiry. In short, cross-cultural psychology of music is interested in when, how and why people from different cultural backgrounds engage in musical activities, such as music making or music listening. Are the uses of music, experiences with music and its psychological functions universal or are there cultural specific features in how, why and when people listen to music?
This homepage gives me the opportunity to let you take part in my research, my studies, and at this stage I would like to thank you for being interested and participating in my research. Diana Boer
