I am thrilled to let you know that I will be presenting a paper and displaying a poster at the forthcoming 3rd International Conference on Music and Emotion. The conference will be held in Jyväskylä, Finland in June this year. This will be my first visit to Finland and I am very much looking forward to it.
At the conference I will be disseminating the findings of my recent experiment which has examined whether affect or arousal are responsible for music tempo's effects on gambling behaviour. I will also be revealing gamblers' responses to the music they hear when gambling and gamblers' perceived effects of music on their emotions when gambling.
Have a look at the conference website for some more information, including details of who will be giving keynote talks.

I am particularly looking forward to listening to Daniel Västfjäll's talk about his research about the roles of affect and mood in music listening experiences. Especially as I am interested in examining whether music-induced mood and affect has implications for gambling behaviour and which psychological mechanisms are responsible for music's effects on behaviour.
Will blog again soon!
