In each case the same participants as before indicated which music they’d prefer to listen to again later. The second part of the study used new music samples: 84 pairs of 10-second clips of instrumental film music, contrasting happy, sad, fear-inducing, neutral, and also high and low energy tracks. The majority of the participants with depression who favoured sad music said that they did so because it was relaxing, calming or soothing. However, unlike in that earlier research, Yoon’s team also asked their participants why they made the choices they did. Successfully replicating the earlier research, Yoon and his team found that their depressed participants were more likely to choose the sad music clips. The participants listened to 30-second excerpts of sad (“Adagio for Strings” by Samuel Barber” and “Rakavot” by Avi Balili), happy and neutral music, and stated which they would prefer to listen to again in the future. The first part of the study was a replication attempt using the same materials as the 2015 paper that found depressed people preferred sad music. The research involved 38 female undergrads diagnosed with depression and 38 non-depressed female undergrad controls. “The current study is the most definitive to date in probing depression-related preferences for sad music using different tasks, and the reasons for these preferences,” write the team at the University of South Florida, led by Sunkyung Yoon. Now a study in the journal Emotion has replicated this finding, but the researchers also present evidence suggesting depressed people are not seeking to maintain their negative feelings, but rather that they find sad music calming and even uplifting. The controversial implication is that depressed people deliberately act in ways that are likely to maintain their low mood. And, according to a provocative study published a few years ago, far from seeking out uplifting music, people diagnosed with depression are notably more inclined than healthy controls to choose to listen to sad music (and look at sad images). But what if you are living with depression? Now the implications become more serious. For most of us, these effects are not a big deal. You might be feeling rather chirpy, but then a tear-jerker comes on the car radio and you arrive home feeling morose (conversely, of course, happy tunes can lift our spirits).
