• A coordinate-based meta-analysis of music-evoked emotions 

      Kölsch, Stefan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Since the publication of the first neuroscience study investigating emotion with music about two decades ago, the number of functional neuroimaging studies published on this topic has increased each year. This research ...
    • Heroic music stimulates empowering thoughts during mind-wandering 

      Kölsch, Stefan; Jentschke, Sebastian; Bashevkin, Tobias; Kristensen, Joakim; Tvedt, Jonas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-07-16)
      It is generally well-known, and scientifically well established, that music affects emotions and moods. However, only little is known about the influence of music on thoughts. This scarcity is particularly surprising given ...
    • Neocortical substrates of feelings evoked with music in the ACC, insula, and somatosensory cortex 

      Kölsch, Stefan; Cheung, Vincent K. M.; Jentschke, Sebastian; Haynes, John-Dylan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Neurobiological models of emotion focus traditionally on limbic/paralimbic regions as neural substrates of emotion generation, and insular cortex (in conjunction with isocortical anterior cingulate cortex, ACC) as the ...
    • Under the hood of statistical learning: A statistical MMN reflects the magnitude of transitional probabilities in auditory sequences 

      Kölsch, Stefan; Busch, Tobias; Jentschke, Sebastian; Rohrmeier, Martin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-02-02)
      Within the framework of statistical learning, many behavioural studies investigated the processing of unpredicted events. However, surprisingly few neurophysiological studies are available on this topic, and no statistical ...
    • When the statistical MMN meets the physical MMN 

      Tsogli, Barbara; Jentschke, Sebastian; Daikoku, Tatsuya; Kölsch, Stefan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-04-03)
      How do listeners respond to prediction errors within patterned sequence of sounds? To answer this question we carried out a statistical learning study using electroencephalography (EEG). In a continuous auditory stream of ...
