Summary: This study examines the relationship between music as emotion regulation and symptoms of depression and anxiety, as well as individuals' use of other adaptive and maladaptive emotion regulation strategies. The results indicate that the overall use of music as emotion regulation is not directly associated with symptoms of depression and anxiety, but using music as a way to discharge emotions is positively related to these symptoms. Adaptive emotion regulation mediates the relationship between overall use of music as emotion regulation and symptoms, while maladaptive emotion regulation mediates the relationship between discharge and symptoms. These findings suggest that music is used as emotion regulation alongside other strategies, which in turn affects symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Summary: Recent research suggests that music listening can induce chills during intense moments, and anticipative physiological and neural responses can occur prior to the chills. This study aimed to investigate craving for music and its psychological correlates through questionnaire assessments and measures of personality traits. The results showed a significant increase in craving for music after listening to a song, with a similar observation for earworms. Craving for music was related to earworms and baseline craving was associated with psychoticism and openness to experience. These findings highlight the occurrence and enhancement of craving reactions in music listening, consistent with previous addiction research.
