The Weight of Words


If the problem is not music, they are indeed words that could be causing trouble! For another study américaine2, it is the violent lyrics that are to blame. They could lead to increased negative feelings, and even encourage aggressive behavior.

According to researchers, the words and influence the vision of the company auditors. Admittedly, the study was conducted only among 500 people, most importantly for young students. This involved testing associations of words after listening to violent music with lyrics or not (Cypress Hill, Suicidal Tendencies, Run DMC ...). And they have noticed results indicating more aggressive after listening to words particularly offensive. The researchers even noted that the texts containing humor also seemed to increase aggression! But so far difficult to conclude on the long-term effects of violent words.

You can see the good side of things: make text songs, words committed, it does not fall into deaf ears.
