  • Beschreibung: The psychological theory of expectation that David Huron proposes in "Sweet anticipation" grew out of the author's experimental efforts to understand how music evokes emotions. These efforts evolved into a general theory of expectation that will prove informative to readers interested in cognitive science and evolutionary psychology as well as those interested in music. The book describes a set of psychological mechanisms and illustrates how these mechanisms work in the case of music. All examples of notated music can be heard on the Web. Huron proposes that emotions evoked by expectation involve five functionally distinct response systems. For real-world events, these five response systems typically produce a complex mixture of feelings. The book identifies some of the aesthetic possibilities afforded by expectation, and shows how common musical devices (such as syncopation, cadence, meter, tonality, and climax) exploit the psychological opportunities. The theory also provides new insights into the physiological psychology of awe, laughter, and spine-tingling chills. Huron traces the psychology of expectations from patterns of physical and cultural world through our imperfectly learned heuristics used to predict that world to be phenomenal qualia we experience as we apprehend the world. David Huron is Professor of Music and Head of the Cognitive and Systematic Musicology Laboratory in the School of Musik at Ohio State University and is affiliated with OSU's Center for Cognitive Science.
