Safety in numbers: the prevalence and nature of music performance anxiety in non-music major undergraduates in ensemble rehearsals and concertsRobson, Kim E. 03 October 2015 (has links)
The troubling negative effects of music performance anxiety (MPA) have remained less investigated under ensemble settings and with undergraduate non-music majors than under solo settings with music majors and professional musicians. This study examined the experience and prevalence of music performance anxiety in ensemble rehearsal and concert settings in 166 undergraduate non-music majors, 108 undergraduate music majors, 4 undeclared undergraduates, 9 graduate non-music majors, and 14 graduate music majors. The participants (instrumentalists and vocalists) were drawn from 10 Mid-Atlantic colleges and universities.
The Kenny Music Performance Anxiety Inventory Revised (K-MPAI-R; Kenny, 2009) was administered within the last six weeks of the semester. Students reported the full range of cognitive, somatic, affective, and behavioral symptoms of MPA, with cognitive symptoms most frequently reported.
The factor structure of the K-MPAI-R was found to be stable with those factor structures previously established by Kenny using elite professional musicians and tertiary-level music students. The results of a standard multiple regression conducted to identify unique predictors of MPA indicated that although depression, being an instrumentalist, being female, and having had a music performance breakdown, all made significant contributions to K-MPAI-R scores, and depression made the strongest unique contribution (beta = .42, p < 0.001).
Greater self-efficacy (as indicated by higher scores on confidence statements in the K-MPAI-R) was correlated with lower MPA under both concert (r = .49, p < 0.0005) and rehearsal settings (r = .52, p < 0.0005). Students with higher depression indicator scores exhibited higher MPA than students with lower depression indicator scores (WT = 31.40, p < 0.001). Music performance breakdowns occurred more often during solos than ensemble performances and memory lapse (16.3% of all students) was cited as the leading cause of music performance breakdowns.
Overall, MPA and depression indicator scores for the sample were high compared with other groups that had been previously evaluated with the K-MPAI-R and the same depression screen. Instructors should therefore be sensitive to the possibility that ensemble musicians may experience significant negative effects of MPA during both concerts and rehearsals, and apprise themselves of evidence-based treatment options and coping strategies available for MPA.

Does corrective feedback on writing lead to performance anxiety?Fröberg, My January 2022 (has links)
Performance anxiety has been a much-discussed topic in recent years, but many questions surrounding it remain unanswered. This essay investigates how written corrective feedback affects students' performance anxiety and how students and teachers attempt respond to performance anxiety in the classroom. Two questionnaires were administered to teachers and students to investigate how they give and receive feedback and how they handle negative emotions. The results show that a large majority of the students experience anxiety about written assignments and that teachers need to work more on teaching emotional regulation in the classroom to help students better deal with performance anxiety.

Unga kvinnors upplevelse av prestationsångest inom lagidrottWikblad, Frida, Andersson, Malin January 2024 (has links)
Prestationsångest är ett vanligt ämne inom idrott. Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur unga kvinnor inom lagidrott upplever prestationsångest. Semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med 10 unga kvinnor mellan 18–25 år som spelade i samma handbollslag. Intervjuerna transkriberades och tematiserades där 6 teman identifierades: individernas upplevelse av prestationsångest, lagom prestationsångest ger bra prestation, lagkamraterna minskar prestationsångest, tränarna ökar prestationsångesten, prestationsångest ökar vid match, hög prestationsångest ger sämre spel. Studiens resultat visade att prestationsångest hos spelarna upplevdes på olika sätt både psykiskt och fysiskt, där mängden prestationsångest påverkade. Prestationsångesten påverkades olika av lagkamraterna och tränarna vilket främst upplevdes vid match. Utifrån tidigare forskning diskuterades hur mängden prestationsångest bidrog till idrottarens prestation där den omvända U-kurvan beskriver förhållandet mellan anspänning och prestation. Hur spelarna uppfattade lagkamraterna som minskande faktor till prestationsångest är något som diskuteras. Studien kan ge mer kunskap och en djupare förståelse för hur unga kvinnor upplever prestationsångest inom lagidrott.

An Investigation of the Relationships between Memory Strategies, Performance Anxiety, and Memory Lapses among Classical PianistsKim, Min Kyung, 1983- 08 1900 (has links)
Unlike most other musicians, pianists need to play by memory during their recitals, juries, etc. Doing so can greatly influence the intensity and frequency of anxiety due to potential memory slips when performing. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between memory strategies, experiences with memory lapses, and performance anxiety among classical pianists. The specific aims of the study are to: (1) characterize demographics, performance practices, and memorization strategies used by college-level pianists; (2) assess experiences of performance anxiety and the influence of performance anxiety on memory lapses; (3) examine the relationships between demographics, performance practices, and memorization strategies; and (4) suggest various memorization strategies that might be useful intervention to overcome memory lapses. To examine participants' awareness and perception, a survey was conducted via invitation of participation from music schools and piano groups on social media, and the useable collected data came from 162 respondents. The results disclosed that pianists' awareness of memory strategies and performance anxiety were significantly correlated. It showed a relationship between knowledge of memory strategies and frequency of performance anxiety within their musical experiences.

Previous issue date: 2016-03-30 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / The objective of this research is to understand how a group of musicians of the Universidade
Federal da Paraíba (UFPB) are using strategies to control musical performance anxiety
(MPA). A group of undergraduate and graduate music students was asked to respond the
Kenny Music Performance Anxiety Inventory (K-MPAI) questionnaire to assess their MPA
level along with semi-structured interview, which was recorded for later analysis. In this
dialogue, the subjects explained in detail how they are affected by the MPA and the strategies
they use for its control. Reported strategies were: spirituality (prayer), use of beta-blockers,
meditation routines to focus upon performance, consultation of self-help literature, self-talk,
breath control, physical activity, positive perception of arousal, relaxation techniques,
acceptance of small errors, switch instruments, simulation of performance and mental
practice. The results confirm the existence of the MPA within the group studied and showed
how it adversely affects the performance in some of the subjects. It also showed the lack of a
systematic use of the different strategies to deal with the MPA. / O objetivo desta pesquisa é entender quais são as diferentes estratégias para o controle da
Ansiedade na Performance Musical (APM) utilizadas por músicos da Universidade Federal
da Paraíba (UFPB). Para isto, foi selecionado um grupo de estudantes de música dos cursos
de Licenciatura em Música, Bacharelado em Música e Pós-graduação em Práticas
Interpretativas. Eles então responderam ao questionário Kenny Music Performance Anxiety
Inventory (K-MPAI) para avaliar seu nível de APM e a uma entrevista semiestruturada, que
foi gravada para posterior análise, na qual os sujeitos explicaram detalhadamente como são
afetados pela APM e as estratégias utilizadas para seu controle. As estratégias reportadas
foram: espiritualidade (oração), uso de betabloqueadores, autoconvencimento (self-talk),
rotinas para se concentrar no momento da performance, consulta de textos de autoajuda,
prática mental, simulação da performance, atividade física, aceitação de pequenos erros,
percepção positiva da excitação, controle da respiração, técnicas de relaxamento e até mesmo
“trocar para outro instrumento”. Os resultados desta pesquisa confirmam a existência da APM
dentro do grupo estudado e mostram como ela afeta negativamente a performance de alguns
dos sujeitos. Também mostra a falta de um uso sistemático das diferentes estratégias para o
controle da APM.

Fra innsikt til uttrykk : En studie av musikalsk prestasjonsangst og bruken av rutiner / From Insight to Expression : A Study of Musical Performance Anxiety and the Usage of RoutinesWetås Jara, Andreas January 2021 (has links)
Dette prosjektet utforsker hvordan bruken av ulike rutiner kan påvirke og dempe forekomsten av musikalsk prestasjonsangst (MPA). Målet er å finne en måte å håndtere prestasjonsangsten på, slik at den ikke påvirker spillegleden og uttrykket. Studien jeg har utført viser at bruken av enkle rutiner som god søvn, yoga og mosjon medførte at prestasjonsangsten sank drastisk. Dette har jeg dokumentert ved hjelp av pulsmålinger, tilpassede målinger og kartleggingsskjemaet Kenny Musical Performance Anxiety Inventory (K-MPAI). Tiltakene førte etter min opplevelse til forbedret spilleglede og uttrykk. Forhåpentligvis kan denne studien være til hjelp for musikere og musikkstudenter som opplever prestasjonsangst som en utfordring i arbeidet. / This study explores how the usage of routines can affect and lower the occurrence of Musical Performance Anxiety (MPA). The main aim is to find a way to handle the performance anxiety, so that it doesn't affect the musical expression and the performer's way of playing. The study shows a correlation between the usage of simple routines such as; good sleep, yoga and light exercise, and descending levels of Musical Performance Anxiety (MPA). Documentation is done by heart rate measurement, customized measuring and Kenny Musical Performance Anxiety Inventory (K-MPAI). The usage of routines, in my opinion, led to improved musical expression in the performances. I hope this study may help other musicians and music students struggling with the challenge of performance anxiety.

The Effects of Feedforward Self-modeling on Self-efficacy, Music Performance Anxiety, and Music Performance in Anxious Adolescent MusiciansMoody, Lisa January 2014 (has links)
Music performance anxiety (MPA) is a significant concern for musicians of all ages, levels of mastery, and genders (Kenny, 2011). Whereas the anxiety-performance relationship has been well researched in athletes, similar research with musicians is sparse (Nordin-Bates, 2012). In the present research, video feed-forward self-modeling (FF-SM video) was explored as an intervention for use by musicians. FF-SM involves video-editing, typically, to depict a level of master performance higher than that yet attained by the individual. Although video FF-SM has been used successfully with athletes (Ste-Marie, Rymal, Vertes, & Martini, 2011) to increase self-efficacy and improve performance, its use has not yet been explored with musicians. In the present study, Bandura’s Self-efficacy Theory (1977) was used as a framework to explore whether FF-SM videos would increase self-efficacy, lower anxiety, and improve performance in adolescent musicians who self-reported MPA. Twelve string musicians, aged 13 to 18 years, who self-reported MPA took part in a two-week intervention where in one week they practiced with the use of a FF-SM video and in the alternate week they practiced without the video. At the end of each week, participants performed the selected repertoire from their video. Video FF-SM significantly increased musicians’ self-efficacy but only for those musicians who viewed the video in the second week. No changes in anxiety or performance levels were observed. Zimmerman’s triadic self-regulation model is used to explain the cyclical pattern of self-efficacy benefits. It is concluded that the FF-SM video can be an effective tool to increase self-efficacy for musicians who self-report MPA, but that an enactive experience is first needed for those benefits to occur. Research extended over a longer time frame is recommended in order to examine whether influences on anxiety and performance would emerge at a later time.

Prestationsångest i sångundervisning : Åtta sångpedagogers arbete med mentala blockeringar hos sina eleverGunnars, Hanna, Coldenberg, Fanny January 2021 (has links)
I denna studie undersöktes hur sångpedagoger ser på prestationsångest och mentala blockeringar hos sina elever. Prestationsångest hos sångare är ett relativt outforskat område, men det är en känsla som drabbar de flesta som utövar musik. Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur sångpedagoger både resonerar kring och hur de hanterar sina elevers prestationsångest och andra mentala blockeringar. Arbetet genomfördes i första hand genom en enkät som sedan låg till grund för intervjuer med åtta verksamma sångpedagoger. Studien vilar på en sociokognitiv teori. Resultatet visar att alla sångpedagoger frekvent möter elever med prestationsångest och att de alla har liknande verktyg för att hantera det. En upptäckt som gjordes var att det sällan talas om prestationsångest i musikundervisning, där många paralleller gjordes till idrottspsykologi som är ett mer utforskat ämne. Sångpedagogerna använde många verktyg som tangerade mental träning men ingen av dem ansåg sig använda någon särskild metod. Det är i nuläget ovanligt att lyfta mental träning i musikundervisning men ett konstaterande som görs är att sångpedagogen måste lära sig att hantera elevers prestationsångest för att kunna hjälpa dem vidare i utvecklingen. Resultatet visar att ett gemensamt ordförråd och gemensamma verktyg att ta till vore gynnsamt. / This study examined vocal coaches’ view on performance anxiety and mental blockages in their students. Performance anxiety is a relatively unexplored area, but it’s a feeling that affects most people who practice music. The purpose of the study was to investigate how vocal coaches both reason about and how they handle their students’ performance anxiety and other mental blockages. The work was carried out through a pilot study that formed the basis for interviews with eight practicing vocal coaches. The study is based on a social cognitive theory. Results show that all vocal coaches meet students with performance anxiety on a daily basis and that they all have similar tools to work with it. A discovery that was made was that the subject of performance anxiety was rarely talked about in music education and many parallels were made to sports psychology, which is a more explored area. The vocal coaches used many tools that are used in mental training, but they all made it clear that they did not use any particular method. It is currently unusual to highlight mental training in music education, but it’s clear that the vocal coach must learn to handle the students’ performance anxiety in order to help them further in development. The result show that a common vocabulary and common tools to use would be beneficial.

Predictors of Music Performance Anxiety in Adolescent MusiciansEdmonson, Jordan 08 1900 (has links)
Music performance anxiety is an issue that affects musicians at all levels but can begin in early adolescence. The researcher investigated three variables and their ability to predict music performance anxiety: catastrophization, self-regulation, and goal-setting style. Catastrophization is a negative thought that amplifies perceived criticism. Self-regulation is a metacognitive skill that allows students to plan strategies and evaluate learning. Goal-setting style refers to a student's framework when establishing learning objectives – whether they are focused on mastering the subject matter, or only trying to avoid being the worst in the class. A sample of adolescent wind musicians (n = 68) were administered four self-reporting measures for the predictor variables and music performance anxiety. Catastrophization, self-regulation, and goal-setting style were all statistically significant in predictor music performance anxiety, with catastrophization alone explaining 69% of the variance in the predictor variable. Overall, the whole model was able to explain 46% of the variance in music performance anxiety.
