- Author / Creator

This thesis aims to advance the study of music cognition by examining its philosophical foundations. It is argued that music cognition is problematically committed to a particular, questionable philosophical mode of thought about the mind and cognition known as internalism. In response, an alternative approach to music psychology is offered. This wide music psychology presents a non-internalist approach to music cognition research. It is further argued that within wide music psychology music cognition is extended.
