Abstract

The article focuses on a study conducted by researchers at the University of Valencia, Spain, which examines the psychological effects of song lyrics on listeners. The research involved a systematic review and meta-analysis of 82 studies, revealing medium effects on cognitive-behavioral and attitudinal levels, and high effects on emotional levels, all linked to the messages conveyed in the lyrics. The findings suggest that critical music education could enhance students' learning by teaching them to analyze song narratives critically. This research contributes to the understanding of music's impact on psychology and education. [Extracted from the article]
