Interesting new study exploring patterns and trends in published research on music & emotion regulation.

Short take—it’s developed tremendous over the decades and remains of continued scholarly interest 🤩

Grading an assignment here and one of my favorite errors students make is writing “illicit” when in fact they mean “elicit”:

The emotions tied to the music would not illicit the same response in every person.

I chuckle every time…

Oh that would definitely work 100% of the time! 😵‍💫

Going through these mandatory annual training modules. Current module covers ethics and compliance, and I just read that “you can be ethical while not being compliant.”

A timely reminder as a teacher in Florida, USA.

I’m grateful to my FGCU colleague Dr. Eric Shamus for the initial invitation to present at this conference. What a fun stretch it was for me to share this information in a new way with a different audience I don’t typically get to connect with!

🎶 Actual music examples, which not only illustrated different concepts but likely also helped to hold the audience’s attention during a post-lunch, hour and a half, midafternoon talk.

🎶 Rhythmic entrainment, including not only its definition, but also how and why it works (e.g. period entrainment, not beat entrainment), and suggestions for how PTs might use even a simple metronome to support motor rehabilitation work.

More personally, if you get a chance to visit Lisbon, do! It was a lovely city with a rich history, beautiful views, city art (historical & contemporary), museums, and delicious wines, foods, & pastéries de nata.

(Pro tip: if you ever try pastéries de nata you should definitely add the cinnamon.)

➡️ There is no such thing at “normal” and we are not here to “fix” clients.

I also enjoyed engaging in discussions during the research poster presentation about the role music can have in supporting early childhood development, particular socio-emotional development.

➡️ Consider that “noncompliance” & being “uncooperative” may be more about unmet needs (eg stress, concerns about paying bills, housing insecurity, etc) that are unrelated to an intervention or therapeutic service.
