Summary

This study looked at whether listening to upbeat music can change how people with depression perceive emotions in faces and voices. Researchers compared the effects of positive and neutral music in 39 adults with and without depression. The goal was to see if positive music could reduce the tendency to focus on negative emotions, known as negativity bias.
