This symposium investigates the psychological impact of music from an applied psychology perspective, focusing on its real-world utilization in various human environments. Presentations will address how environmental music shapes consumer and employee behavior, how cultural traditions like Chinese folk songs foster emotional connection, and how music contributes to therapeutic processes such as emotional regulation and trauma recovery. Furthermore, the role of psychometric tools in measuring music enjoyment and engagement will be discussed. By integrating cultural, clinical, and organizational contexts, this session highlights music's value as a practical tool in applied psychological interventions and research.
