As a scientific discipline, music psychology can now look back on a history of over 140 years. The Yearbook of Music Psychology combines musicological, psychological, sociological, pedagogical, and media-scientific  research with works from related disciplines and thus bundles the different perspectives on the phenomenon of 'music'.
In this sense, the Yearbook of Music Psychology, as an open publication forum between psychology and musicology, not only addresses specialists from the individual sub-disciplines but also a broad readership beyond the boundaries of the disciplines who are interested in empirical music research and fundamental questions of access to music.

Volume 32 is edited by Reinhard Kopiez. Editorial assistants are Nina Düvel and Kilian Sander.
