Abstract

Music-evoked autobiographical Memory (MEAM) is a distinct form of autobiographical memory that is intricately intertwined with the experience of music. The present study centers its attention on the many musical and human aspects that exerted an influence on the Music-Evoked Autobiographical Memory process among adolescents. Through the administration of a questionnaire to a sample of 312 high school and college students, the researcher discovered that various factors, including the genre of music, the level of mood-matching between the music and the individual, the emotional response elicited during listening, and the level of arousal experienced by the listener, exert substantial influences on the MEAM. The results of this study provide evidence in favor of the concept that individual emotional experiences and the substance of music might influence the process of memory. This result demonstrates the potential implications of MEAM for the fields of music therapy, education, and the music industry.
