Hello!
We have launched an online study that invites people to tell us about music
they listen to. The link is: http://tinyurl.com/h4o9l75
The online survey should only take around 15 minutes to complete and more
information is below. Do feel free to pass this invitation along to anyone who might
be interested.
Best wishes,
Neta
_Do the Shuffle_
To participate you need to be:
- Over the age of 18 - Have your everyday music listening device/application handy, e.g. iPod, Spotify, iTunes, SoundCloud.
- The device/application must have a shuffle function
- If you use playlists make sure they are playlists that you have created yourself.
This study is in three parts:
Part 1: Firstly, you will be asked to take out your regular music listening
device (e.g. phone, laptop etc.), turn on the shuffle function within a
listening app you usually use and press play. Whatever song comes on first
(no matter which one it is), you will be invited to answer some open-ended
questions about this song. You will then be asked to do this entire
procedure again, but with a different song (using shuffle again).
Part 2: Next, you will answer some short multiple choice questions about
the two songs you just listened to.
Part 3: Finally, you will be asked to fill out another short questionnaire
about yourself and your music listening habits.
This study is organised by members of the research team at Nordoff Robbins,
a music therapy charity, and the School of Psychology at Keele University.
