Psychology and Music – Interdisciplinary Encounters on October 23-26, 2024 in Zagreb, Croatia

We are pleased to announce the third international conference, Psychology and Music – Interdisciplinary Encounters (PAM-IE Zagreb 2024), which will be held 23 – 26 October 2024 at the University of Zagreb Academy of Music and Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences. The conference will follow the previous two editions organised by the University of Arts Faculty of Music in Belgrade (a brief history of the PAM-IE conferences is available here).

 

By organising the third international PAM-IE 2024 conference, we aim to bring together the diverse research endeavours of individuals and institutions in the interdisciplinary field of psychology and music and to continue providing a setting in which they can make their work visible to each other as well as to a broader interested audience.

 

The conference is planned to be held on-site, with the possibility to combine live and virtual participation.

 

The tasks of the conference are:

 

To foster interdisciplinary empirical and theoretical research and knowledge exchange in psychology and music and related scientific and humanistic disciplines, as well as arts.

To encourage the practical applications of academic knowledge, primarily in music education, music performance, and the musicians’ well-being.

To create possibilities for international encounters and strengthen networks and collaborations between researchers in different geographic areas.

To bring together experienced scholars, early-career researchers, psychologists, musicians with different profiles, and representatives of related scientific and applied disciplines.
