Conceptual model of musical affect self-regulation

This is a theory- and empirical knowledge-based model for musical affect self-regulation. It aims at putting together the elements underlying this process identified in recent research and at providing a useful and solid background for future work. Two main steps are behind this conceptual work: an integrative literature review (Baltazar and Saarikallio 2016) and a survey study focused on the associations between the regulatory strategies and the musical mechanisms (Baltazar and Saarikallio 2017).
