Self description
Why do people listen to the music they do? How do they listen to and evaluate it? Why do they like it or dislike it? To address these questions my research applies theories and paradigms from behavioural economics and decision-making to study aesthetics and music choice behaviour. My research interests include cognitive biases and heuristics in music evaluation, the reliability of musical judgements and memories, social and applied music psychology, music in advertising, and audio branding.
