“…Deren interne Konsistenz umfasst Werte von Cronbach's α = ,76 bis ,91, die Test-Retest-Reliabilität erstreckt sich von Cronbach's α = ,65 bis ,79; zudem korrelieren die vier Faktoren mit Mind-Wandering (r von ,12 bis ,28) und kognitiver Intrusion (r von ,07 bis ,22) sowiemusikalischer Erfahrenheit (r von ,12 bis ,34). Die Reliabilitätswerte in der leicht modifizierten chinesischen Version(Jue et al, 2022) sind ähnlich gut (von Cronbach's α = ,66 bis ,90; Test-Retest-Reliabilität von Cronbach's α = ,55 bis ,72).

Das Erlebnis unfreiwilliger musikalischer Imaginationen (Ohrwurm-Erleben) ist ein alltägliches Phänomen, das sich in Häufigkeit und subjektiver Qualität unterscheidet und möglicherweise stark beeinflusst ist von musikalischer Erfahrenheit und Expertise. Mit einer Onlinebefragung wurden Unterschiede zwischen Musikstudierenden und Nicht-Musikstudierenden hinsichtlich der Zusammenhänge zwischen Ohrwurm-Erleben, Arbeitsgedächtniskapazität, Tonhöhenvorstellungsvermögen und musikalischer Erfahrenheit untersucht. Die Ergebnisse dieser quasi-experimentellen Gruppenstudie (N = 124) bestätigen, dass Musikstudierende im Vergleich zu Nicht-Musikstudierenden häufiger Ohrwürmer erleben, jedoch weder längere Ohrwürmer noch länger andauernde Ohrwurm-Episoden. Bessere Arbeitsgedächtnisleistungen sind mit einer längeren zeitlichen Dauer der erlebten Ohrwurm-Episoden korreliert, aber weder mit der Häufigkeit des Ohrwurm-Erlebens noch mit der Länge der als Ohrwurm repetierten musikalischen Segmente. Schließlich neigen Musikstudierende in höherem Maße zu synchronen Bewegungen mit dem Ohrwurm als Nicht-Musikstudierende, was auf eine motorische Komponente des Ohrwurm-Phänomens hindeutet.

“…The rotated factor structure for the scale, and the resulting subscale structures, followed exactly the pattern of that reported in Floridou et al’s (2015) Study 2. Unfortunately, comparisons to the factor analytic results of Jue et al’s (2020) study in mainland China were not possible because these authors added and removed items from the original IMIS, and subsequently found a factor solution with two novel dimensions, interpreted as Spare cognitive capacity, and Mind-wandering.…”

“…What appears to be generally absent from the INMI literature, including work that utilizes the IMIS, is research in contexts and using samples other than those that are European or American. There are currently three exceptions that we are aware of: a Twitter-based study of earworm-related tweets by Liikkanen et al (2015) that sampled tweets from 173 countries, an experimental study of earworm induction and working memory in a South African student sample (Geffen & Pitman, 2019), and a recent study on the adaptation and validation of the IMIS in mainland China (Jue et al, 2020).…”

“…Yet these contributions were dwarfed by those from sampled from the Global North, 2 and 93 of the 173 countries contributed only ten or fewer tweets to the dataset. As Jue et al (2020) note in their paper, the Liikkanen et al (2015) study also eliminated all tweets that were not in English, further reducing some of the potential cultural-linguistic diversity in these data.…”

Psychometric evaluation of the Involuntary Musical Imagery Scale (IMIS) in a South African sample

Involuntary musical imagery (INMI) is a common variety of musical imagery (MI) that has been a key research interest in the psychology of music over the last ten years. The Involuntary Musical Imagery Scale (IMIS), a closed-ended self-report instrument that offers a standardized means of assessing different aspects of earworm experience, has previously been evaluated psychometrically in at least two predominantly Euro-American samples. This report extends the study of INMI, and of the IMIS in particular, into a multicultural and multilingual African context. Responses to the IMIS from a South African student sample were subjected to factor analysis, reliability analysis, and a series of correlational analyses in order to assess its robustness and suitability for cross-cultural research. Results suggest the IMIS has a robust factor structure, reliability characteristics, and internal intercorrelation patterns when compared to previous findings, even outside a Global North setting. Item and subscale scores generally converged with other indicators of MI and INMI frequency, as well as INMI pleasantness and levels of disturbance. In contrast to the findings of much previous research, IMIS Negative Valence correlated negatively with earworm frequency, section length, and episode length, providing support for the claim that earworms are generally a positive rather than aversive experience. Although IMIS earworm frequency was strongly and positively correlated with INMI frequency, they shared only 36.8% variance – a result consistent with concerns that MI/INMI definitions have considerable impact on self-reports of these phenomena, and specifically that the earworm experience should not be equated with or considered prototypical of INMI experience.

“…In our opinion, adhering to high psychometric standards is not only important for the development of questionnaires but also for their translation into other languages. For example, high psychometric standards were met for the following translations: Gouveia, Pimentel, Lima de Santana, Chaves, and Andrade da Paraı ´ba (2008) published the Portuguese (Brazilian Portuguese) version of the Short Test of Music Preference; Zarza Alzugaray, Herna ´ndez, Lo ´pez, and Gil (2015) validated the Spanish translation of the Kenny Music Performance Anxiety Inventory; Lin, Kopiez, Mu ¨llensiefen, and Wolf (2021) validated the Chinese version of the Gold-MSI for a Taiwanese sample; and Jue, Jianping, and Yiduo (2020) applied the same procedure to the Chinese version of the Involuntary Musical Imagery Scale.…”

Experience of Groove Questionnaire

et al. 2021

In recent empirical research, the experience of groove (i.e., the pleasant sense of wanting to move along with the music) has come into focus. By developing the new Experience of Groove Questionnaire (EGQ), Senn et al. (2020) have provided a standardized and validated research instrument for future studies, consisting of the two correlated factors Urge to Move and Pleasure. The present study reports the translation of the English version into German and a validation with a German sample (N = 455). The original version’s factor structure was confirmed by the German data. Test-retest reliability was found to be high (rtt > .85) for both factors. To determine convergent validity, two other scales were included: The Drum Pattern Quality Scale (Frühauf, Kopiez, & Platz, 2013) and the Aesthetic Emotions Scale (Schindler et al., 2017) showed high correlations (.78 < r < .87) with the two factors of the EGQ and therefore indicated convergent validity. We conclude that the German version shows good psychometric properties and recommend its use for future research on the experience of groove.
