“…Conflicting effects of valence on chills have been discussed in the context of being moved, a mixed emotional state involving sadness and joy (Menninghaus et al, 2015). More specifically, being moved has been associated with chills when listening to music (Bannister, 2019(Bannister, , 2020Bannister & Eerola, 2018;Benedek & Kaernbach, 2011), and has been found to mediate the relationship between liking and sadness in response to music (Vuoskoski & Eerola, 2017). Moving stimuli often feature narrative displays of social separation or reunion (Wassiliwizky et al, 2015), prosocial behaviour (Wassiliwizky et al, 2017), or self-sacrifice (Konečni et al, 2007), but it remains unclear how such narrative features translate to music, and how stimulus valence relates to the occurrence of chills.…”
