“…The utility of musical cues in eliciting autobiographical memories has been well-documented in the literature (Barrett et al, 2010; Cady et al, 2008; Ford et al, 2011, 2012, 2014; Janata et al, 2007; Janata, 2009b; Schulkind & Woldorf, 2005), with the efficacy of these cues related to self-reported song familiarity (Barrett et al, 2010; Janata et al, 2007). Familiarity-related enhancements in temporal specificity and emotional positivity in the current study provide additional clarification regarding this relation between song familiarity and autobiographical memory, revealing that song familiarity not only increases the likelihood of retrieving a memory (Janata et al, 2007), but also enhances the subjective memory representation.…”
