High Absorption in Music Modulates Oxytocin Release
- Claudia Idzik

Abstract
Being absorbed in music has previously correlated with higher traits of empathy and music empathizing. Experiencing and showing empathy is implicated in oxytocin release, however the role of music and oxytocin has scarcely been examined. This research aims to determine the relationship between music absorption and oxytocin release.
