Özet

Müzikal duygular, son yıllarda artan sayıda nörobilim araştırmasına konu olmakla birlikte, alandaki bulgular çoğu zaman farklı yöntemler ve parçalı kavramsal çerçeveler içinde sunulmaktadır. Bu çalışma, söz konusu literatürü nörofizyolojik ritimler, fonksiyonel ağlar, anatomik yapılar, klinik yansımalar, davranışsal etkiler ve bireysel farklılıklar başlıkları altında ele alarak müzikal duyguların sinirsel temsiline ilişkin bütüncül bir değerlendirme sunmayı amaçlamaktadır. Nörogörüntüleme, davranışsal ve kuramsal çalışmalar anlatı temelli derleme yöntemiyle incelenmiş, farklı yöntemlerden elde edilen bulgular ortak bir kavramsal çerçevede yeniden yorumlanmıştır. İncelenen araştırmalar, müziğe verilen duygusal yanıtların işitsel sistem, limbik yapılar, prefrontal bölgeler ve ödül devreleri arasındaki etkileşimlerle ilişkili olduğunu göstermektedir. Ayrıca bellek, beklenti, dikkat ve bireysel yaşantıların yanı sıra kültürel çevre ile kişisel farklılıkların da bu süreci biçimlendirebildiği görülmektedir. Bu çerçevede müzikal duyguların, biyolojik ve psikolojik süreçlerin kesişiminde ortaya çıkan çok katmanlı deneyimler olarak değerlendirilebileceği anlaşılmaktadır. Buna göre derleme, müzikal duyguların tekil bir merkezle açıklanmasından çok, çoklu sinir sistemlerini birlikte ele alan multimodal yaklaşımlarla daha tutarlı biçimde incelenebileceğini önermektedir.

Abstract

Musical emotions have become the subject of an increasing number of neuroscience studies in recent years, yet findings in the field are often presented through different methods and fragmented conceptual frameworks. This study aims to provide an integrated evaluation of the neural representation of musical emotions by examining the relevant literature under the headings of neurophysiological rhythms, functional networks, anatomical structures, clinical implications, behavioral effects, and individual differences. Neuroimaging, behavioral, and theoretical studies were reviewed through a narrative review approach, and findings obtained from different methods were reinterpreted within a shared conceptual framework. The reviewed studies indicate that emotional responses to music are associated with interactions among the auditory system, limbic structures, prefrontal regions, and reward circuits. In addition, memory, expectation, attention, individual life experiences, as well as cultural context and personal differences, appear to shape this process. Within this framework, musical emotions may be regarded as multilayered experiences emerging at the intersection of biological and psychological processes. Accordingly, this review suggests that musical emotions may be examined more coherently through multimodal approaches that consider multiple neural systems together, rather than through explanations based on a single center.
