Looking for participants for my research on Indian classical music, memory and emotions
Hi everyone,
I’m currently pursuing my MSc in Clinical Psychology, and as someone who has also grown up learning Carnatic music, I’ve always been curious about the way music shapes us beyond performance, such as if it improves our attention, memory, mood regulation, etc.
I’m currently researching that in my dissertation and I’m looking for vocalists trained in India forms of music between the age 18-35 as participants.
The criteria is atleast three years of formal learning and engagement in practice.
It will take you around 15 minutes to complete the survey, which will consist of a computerised memory task and a few short questionnaires.
It would genuinely mean a lot to me to have musicians from this community take part in the research. I really hope this study can contribute, even in a small way, to understanding Indian classical music not only as an art form, but also as how it contributes to well being :)
