  • The Effect of Digital Scaffolds on Performance Gains Made in Practice by High School String Players

    Open AccessBrittany Rom, R H WoodyARTICLEJournal of Research in Music…2026

    Independent practice is a cornerstone of musical development but one that many music students struggle to carry out effectively. In this study, we examined how digital supports affect the practice of high school string players. Sixty students completed four short practice sessions, each in a different condition: (a) control (no scaffolding), (b) aural model only, (c) aural model with audio playback, and (d) aural model, playback, and visual evalu…

  • Inclusive music teacher education

    Open AccessRhonda J Fuelberth, Rhonda Fuelberth et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of Music…2025

    In this report of self-study research, we share the insights we have gained working together at our institution to make undergraduate music teacher education more inclusive of how people naturally do music, focusing on three program features. First, we explain how our program affirms composition as a primary form of musicianship, similar to the status commonly given to performance. Second, we describe a vernacular music making experience in which…

  • The efficacy of imagery-based instruction for expressive performance

    R H Woody, Mary Beth Hilbers et al.ARTICLEMusic Education Research2024

    In this study, we investigated how musicians use descriptive imagery to perform expressively. The study’s procedure was carried out by university musicians alone in a naturalistic practice environment. They recorded their performance of two melodies both before and after receiving imagery-based instruction designed to make performance of the melodies very expressive. Participants read and considered a teacher’s expressive instructions for each me…

  • Student-directed learning in popular musicianship

    Open AccessR H WoodyARTICLEInternational Journal of Music…2024

    This action research study provides insight into the learning of university music education students who participated in a popular musicianship experience. The participants were thirty-four music education students (i.e. pre-service music educators) at an American university enrolled in a student-directed Popular Musicianship course. Although given access to “rock band” instruments and sound equipment during the semester-long experience, they did…

  • University musicians’ use of component cognitive skills in practice

    Open AccessR H WoodyARTICLEPsychology of Music2023

    This study’s procedure, carried out by university musicians in a naturalistic practice environment, explored the effect of attention to musical cognitive skills on self-reported characteristics of practicing. One hundred university music majors carried out a practice session that targeted an expressive performance skill, and while doing so, responded to written prompts to report their thought processes. Musicians in the treatment condition, prior…

  • Musical engagement and identity

    R H Woody, Xinwei Liu et al.ARTICLEMusic Education Research2021

    Our study explored how adolescents’ experiences and musical preferences might relate to musical identity, and the likelihood of engaging in musical activities as adults. Participants were 170 first-year university students, both music majors and non-music majors. A questionnaire collected participants’ responses regarding beliefs about music, as well as self-reported ratings of musicality and the likelihood of engaging in musical activities. Resu…

  • Music education students’ intrinsic and extrinsic motivation

    Open AccessR H WoodyARTICLEPsychology of Music2021

    In this study, I sought to identify the characteristics of musical experiences that contribute to young musicians’ motivation for musical engagement. A comprehensive review of the literature produced 15 characteristics in three broader categories of contextual, process, and affective characteristics. These formed the basis of the coding scheme used in a content analysis of narratives provided by 102 music education majors. Participants wrote two …

  • Musical identities of older adults are not easily changed

    R H Woody, Amy Fraser et al.ARTICLEMusic Education Research2019Citada por: 2Referencias: 5

    We explored the role of self-efficacy in participatory music-making, and whether a single such music-making activity could make non-musician adults more open to seeing themselves as musical. Past research has suggested that even recipients of multiple years of school music education do not consider being musical as a part of their identity, and they do not exit adolescence with an independent musicianship that would facilitate their making music …

  • Music Teacher Dispositions

    Open AccessR H Woody, Danni Gilbert et al.ARTICLEJournal of Research in Music…2018Citada por: 1Referencias: 3

    For music teachers to be most effective, they must possess the dispositions that best facilitate their students’ learning. In this article, we present and discuss the findings of a study in which we sought to explore music majors’ self-appraisals in and the extent to which they value the disposition areas of reflectivity, empathic caring, musical comprehensiveness, and musical learnability orientation. Evidence from a survey of 110 music majors s…

  • Student Musicians’ Ear-Playing Ability as a Function of Vernacular Music Experiences

    Open AccessR H Woody, A Lehmann et al.ARTICLEJournal of Research in Music…2010Citada por: 1Referencias: 7

    This study explored the differences in ear-playing ability between formal “classical” musicians and those with vernacular music experience ( N = 24). Participants heard melodies and performed them back, either by singing or playing on their instruments. The authors tracked the number of times through the listen-then-perform cycle that each participant needed for accurate performance. Participants retrospectively reported their thoughts and provid…

  • Psychology for Musicians

    A Lehmann, Andreas C Lehmann et al.BOOKPsychology for Musicians2007

    'Psychology for Musicians' is designed to address the needs and priorities of the performing musician rather than the research community. The text reviews the relevant psychological research findings in relation to situations and issues faced by musicians.

  • The Effect of Various Instructional Conditions on Expressive Music Performance

    Open AccessR H WoodyARTICLEJournal of Research in Music…2006

    This study is a comparison of the effectiveness of three approaches used to elicit expressivity in music students' performances: (a) aural modeling, (b) verbal instruction addressing concrete musical properties, and (c) verbal instruction using imagery and metaphor. Thirty-six college pianists worked with three melodies, one in each instructional condition. With each, subjects first gave a baseline performance, then received instruction for perfo…

  • Musicians' Cognitive Processing of Imagery-Based Instructions for Expressive Performance

    Open AccessR H WoodyARTICLEJournal of Research in Music…2006

    This study addressed the cognitive processes of musicians using imagery to improve expressive performance. Specifically, it was an examination of the extent to which musicians translate imagery into explicit plans for the sound properties of music. Eighty four undergraduate and graduate music majors completed a research packet during individual practice sessions. Subjects worked with three melodies, each accompanied by an imagery example presente…

  • Explaining Expressive Performance

    Open AccessR H WoodyARTICLEJournal of Research in Music…2003Citada por: 3Referencias: 1

    This study is an examination of musicians' expressive performances, in an aural modeling task, paying special attention to the skills of goal imaging and motor production. Twenty-five university musicians heard expressive piano excerpts preceded by expressionless “deadpan” versions to use as the bases of comparison. After giving imitative performances of each expressive model, subjects indicated the perceived dynamic and tempo contours of the mod…

  • Predicting Music Appreciation with Past Emotional Responses to Music

    Open AccessR H Woody, Kimberly Burns et al.ARTICLEJournal of Research in Music…2001Citada por: 2Referencias: 2

    This study is an exploration of the musical backgrounds and beliefs of nonmusicians and the relationship of these variables to music appreciation factors. Subjects were 533 college students enrolled in 17 sections of courses in Music Appreciation and Music for Classroom Teachers. Subjects completed a questionnaire regarding their musical backgrounds, preferences, and beliefs and then heard and responded to four highly expressive classical music e…

  • The Relationship between Explicit Planning and Expressive Performance of Dynamic Variations in an Aural Modeling Task

    Open AccessR H WoodyARTICLEJournal of Research in Music…1999Citada por: 6Referencias: 1

    The present study is an examination of the performance of expressive dynamic variations by advanced pianists in an aural modeling (imitative) performance task. Twenty-four university musicians listened to expressive performances of short piano excerpts played for them via MIDI on a Yamaha Disklavier acoustic piano. These expressive models contained idiomatic features (musically appropriate) and nonidiomatic features (musically inappropriate). Aft…
