Abstract:
When listening to music, we naturally move our bodies rhythmically to the beat, which can be pleasurable and difficult to resist. This pleasurable sensation of wanting to move the body to music has been called “groove.” Following pioneering humanities research, psychological and neuroscientific studies have provided insights on associated musical features, behavioral responses, phenomenological aspects, and brain structural and functional correlates of the groove experience. Groove research has advanced the field of music science and more generally informed our understanding of bidirectional links between perception and action, and the role of the motor system in prediction. Activity in motor and reward-related brain networks during music listening is associated with the groove experience, and this neural activity is linked to temporal prediction and learning. This article reviews research on groove as a psychological phenomenon with neurophysiological correlates that link musical rhythm perception, sensorimotor prediction, and reward processing. Promising future research directions range from elucidating specific neural mechanisms to exploring clinical applications and socio-cultural implications of groove.

日本語によるコメント:
「音楽に合わせて身体を動かしたくなる快い感覚」をグルーヴと呼びます。グルーヴの研究は初め、音楽学や民族音楽学など人文科学の領域で進められてきました。そして、2000年代から心理学者や神経科学者による実験を通した研究が行われるようになり、現在ではグルーヴと関連する概念、行動、神経活動などが検討されています。本論文では、心理学・神経科学の研究領域におけるグルーヴ研究を包括的にレビューし、今後の展望を述べました。
