Music psychology

Music psychology is the study of how people react to and respond to music. It involves looking at how our emotions are affected by music, how music can help with decision making, and how certain types of music can help us focus, relax, or even feel energized. Music psychology can help us understand why certain songs make us feel a certain way and why some songs might be better when trying to get motivated.
