Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the intent of improving the teaching of practice strategies to young musicians, the purpose of this multiple case study was to discover how students use goal setting and self-assessment within their personal practice sessions and how these self-regulative components affect strategy choice and motivation. The specific questions were as follows: (a) What goal setting and self-assessment comments do novice, adolescent instrumental musicians make during instrumental practice? (b) What goal setting and self-assessment strategies do novice, adolescent instrumental musicians use during instrumental practice? (c) Are there differences in practice strategies found among students when they are deliberately involved in goal setting or self-assessment compared to times when they are not setting goals or self-assessment? and (d) What strategies do students use to address various technical aspects of performance? This study entailed the observation of middle school aged instrumental music students (N=6) during their individual practice. Two students were in eighth grade and four were in seventh grade. The students played flute (N=2), clarinet (N=1), saxophone (N=2), and trombone (N=1). Data was collected via field notes, videotape analysis of three practice sessions per student along with concurrent and retrospective verbal reports, focus group interviews before and after the observation cycle commenced and concluded, and an interview with the students' band director. Data were analyzed within cases and across cases for emergent themes. Four themes were found to describe a cyclical practice process in which students moved from motivation, to goal setting, to strategy use, to assessment, and back to motivation. Each stage of the cycle seemed to drive other stages. Students with learning goal orientations seemed to practice more effectively than students with performance or time orientations. Student goals tended to lack specificity, which negatively influenced student choice of practice strategy and self-assessment. Three external factors were found that had a strong influence on the practice cycle, including teachers, musical aural image, and learning development . These three factors wove their way through all four stages of the practice cycle.

Download or read book Effects of a Peer mediated Intervention on Self regulation in Instrumental Music Education written by John E. Jones (Musician) and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most important aspects of learning a musical instrument is the development of Self-Regulated Learning. This study examined a peer-mediated metacognitive management tool designed to scaffold student metacognition, support peer motivation, and calibrate self-efficacy. The subject population included students ages 10-14 (n = 96), who studied a string instrument in the school orchestra. Students completed a pre/post Self-Regulation Questionnaire. They spent nine weeks completing a practice intervention that scaffolded their planning, monitoring, and reflection. Interviews were also conducted to triangulate findings. Results suggested that the intervention decreased self-efficacy in sixth graders compared to fifth graders. There was increased usage of practice behaviors in seventh graders compared to eighth graders. There was increased time management in seventh graders compared to fifth graders and in eighth graders compared to seventh graders. There were also increased social influences in eighth graders compared to fifth graders. These results suggest that a structured peer-mediated intervention may be helpful for students in developing their self-regulation skills. This may be attributable to scaffolding provided by the intervention and motivational factors of peer involvement. This study may further suggest particular grade groups with which to target such interventions.

Download or read book The Impact of Music Education on Select Students Self Efficacy written by Amber L. Gustafson and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music education may hold the key to improving the self-efficacy of students classified as socioeconomically disadvantaged. Increasing self-efficacy for these students also potentially improves their chances of academic success. This study investigated the ways in which an El Sistema-inspired after-school orchestra program impacts socioeconomically disadvantaged students' self-efficacy as well as the correlations that exist between students' participation in the music program and their self-esteem, perseverance, motivation, and outlook on their personal future. Participants included fourth and fifth grade students enrolled in an orchestra program at a public elementary school in Southern California as well as their parents, teachers, and the school administration. The study was carried out through a mixed-methods approach, which consisted of student surveys, observations, and interviews with parents and school staff. Results revealed participation in the music program provided students with access to several sources of self-efficacy and produced strong correlations to measures of self-esteem and perseverance. Relationships between participation in the after-school orchestra and levels of motivation and outlook on personal future were also indicated but to a lesser degree. This study provides evidence music programs are valuable and can provide the right type of environment to reach children who are at-risk and give them the opportunities they need to succeed.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research study examined the relationship of self-efficacy to performance anxiety, as outlined in social cognitive theory. The purpose of this nonexperimental, quantitative study was to test the theory of social cognitive theory that relates self-efficacy to anxiety. MPA and music performance self-efficacy (MPSE) were tested within the context of a school setting for instrumental music-making. The participants (N = 228) included a stratified random sample of Grade 6 to 8 instrumental middle school students located within the Mid-Atlantic region. To determine levels of MPA and MPSE, participants completed the Music Performance Anxiety Inventory for Adolescents and the Music Performance Self-Efficacy Scale. A correlational research design was used to test both the strength of the relationship between MPA and MPSE and the extent to which MPA could be predicted by two sources of self-efficacy: mastery experience and verbal/social persuasion. A causal-comparative research design informed whether students’ levels of MPA and MPSE differed based on their gender and grade level. Findings suggested a statistically significant, weak negative correlation between MPA and MPSE, a significant predictive relationship between MPA scores and the linear combination of mastery experience and verbal/social persuasion, and a statistically significant main effect of gender on MPA. Recommendations for future research include investigation into: (a) the higher levels of MPA that female students experience relative to their male peers, (b) the relationships between verbal/social persuasion and MPA among middle-school aged students, (c) strategies for teaching self-efficacy as a coping mechanism for MPA, and (d) how the relationship between MPA and MPSE is affected by proximity to a performance.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship between university music students' self-regulation, motivational beliefs, and background characteristics and the number and kinds of practice strategies used during 30 min of practicing. The research questions used to guide this study were: "After controlling for participants' known background characteristics (age, sex, primary instrument, years of playing, years of private lessons, average hr of practice per week, and training on another instrument), do university music students' self-regulatory abilities, self-perceptions and motivational beliefs (self-efficacy, locus of causal attributions, goal orientation, and implicit talent beliefs) predict the number of practice strategies used during a 30-min practice session?" and "After controlling for participants' known background characteristics (age, sex, primary instrument, years of playing, years of private lessons, average hr of practice per week, and training on another instrument), do university music students' self-regulatory abilities, self-perceptions and motivational beliefs (self-efficacy, locus of causal attributions, goal orientation, and implicit talent beliefs) predict the total kinds of practice strategies used during a 30-min practice session?" Participants in this study were undergraduate music students who played woodwind (n = 20) or brass instruments (n = 20), from three different universities in the mid-South. Results from a multiple regression revealed that participants' self-regulation, self-efficacy, locus of causal attributions, goal orientations, implicit talent beliefs, and background characteristics accounted for 56% of the outcome variable total number of strategies used. The strongest predictor that contributed to the regression model was performance approach goal orientation (ß = .57), followed by sex (ß = .52), locus of causal attributions (ß = -.52), and self-regulation (ß = .38). Results from the second multiple regression revealed that participants' self-regulation, self-efficacy, locus of causal attributions, goal orientations, implicit talent beliefs, and background characteristics accounted for 53% of the outcome variable kinds of strategies used. The strongest predictor that contributed to the regression model was the performance avoid goal orientation (ß = .42), followed by primary instrument family (ß = .37), self-efficacy (ß = -.30), self-regulation (ß = .29), and sex (ß = .29). Future research and implications for music educators are discussed.

This book was released on 2023-06-29 with total page 1398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an open access book. With the progress of social civilization, social science and its research are becoming more and more important. Theoretically and practically, the study of social phenomena and social problems and the development of prosperous social sciences are the eternal themes of human beings. At present, social science research and its results can hardly meet the needs of social development, especially the unscientific evaluation of social science results, which has aroused great concern from all walks of life, and has produced dirt and questions on social science, thus affecting the proper development of social science. Max Weber once said that "the most important function of social science in modern times is to keep people "clear-headed" and to resist the delusions of "prophetic legislators". " Humanities and arts are the process of perceiving, realizing, thinking, manipulating, and expressing objective or subjective objects through capturing and excavating, feeling and analyzing, integrating and applying, or displaying the stage results in the form obtained through feeling (seeing, hearing, smelling, touching). The social sciences and humanities and arts contain content that will directly affect our lives and the way society functions. And by reacting to today's increasingly intricate problems and situations through systematic and professional discussions, they will further contribute to the improvement of institutions and the development of society. By thinking about issues and looking at problems and the world from different perspectives by putting the two together, it may be possible to have more comprehensive, appropriate, and better responses; for example, the development of laws requires a deeper understanding of the environment in which they are implemented; international trade requires a certain understanding of the customs of different countries; and the development of tax and economic policies requires a certain understanding of the population, consumer demand, etc.

Download or read book The Science and Psychology of Music Performance written by Richard Parncutt and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2002-04-18 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What type of practice makes a musician perfect? What sort of child is most likely to succeed on a musical instrument? What practice strategies yield the fastest improvement in skills such as sight-reading, memorization, and intonation? Scientific and psychological research can offer answers to these and other questions that musicians face every day. In The Science and Psychology of Music Performance, Richard Parncutt and Gary McPherson assemble relevant current research findings and make them accessible to musicians and music educators. This book describes new approaches to teaching music, learning music, and making music at all educational and skill levels. Each chapter represents the collaboration between a music researcher (usually a music psychologist) and a performer or music educator. This combination of expertise results in excellent practical advice. Readers will learn, for example, that they are in the majority (57%) if they experience rapid heartbeat before performances; the chapter devoted to performance anxiety will help them decide whether beta-blocker medication, hypnotherapy, or the Alexander Technique of relaxation might alleviate their stage fright. Another chapter outlines a step-by-step method for introducing children to musical notation, firmly based on research in cognitive development. Altogether, the 21 chapters cover the personal, environmental, and acoustical influences that shape the learning and performance of music.
