摘要 扎根於廣闊的正向心理學領域，借鑒了之前關於有意義性的音樂媒體體驗及其效果的研究（Janicke & Oliver, 2015），本研究探討了基督教音樂在幫助聽眾應對生活的不確定性、培養感恩、增進聯結以及對他人的慈愛。過去的十年間，對於探究哪些特定媒體內容能夠促進社會福祉、幸福感和正向情緒的興趣逐漸增加（Vorderer, 2011）。然而，大多數媒體效應研究都集中於探討接觸媒體可能產生的負面影響。因此，充分發揮有意義性的音樂內容所蘊含的潛力，以對抗媒體的有害和負面影響，變得至關重要。

通過量化方法，本研究對比了基督教音樂與享受性音樂中超凡體驗、感恩、聯結和慈愛的顯著性。該研究還探討了感恩在基督教音樂與聯結以及慈愛之間關係中的中介作用。研究結果為基督教音樂對個體幸福感的影響提供了實證證據，因為它在強調超凡、感恩、情感連結和慈愛的方面相較於幸福感音樂更為突出。與基督教音樂有意地互動可以增強個體與超凡的聯繫感，關心他人的幸福感並培養慈愛的能力。感恩在這些積極情感體驗與基督教音樂之間發揮了重要的中介作用。總之，這些研究結果有助於我們對基督教音樂帶來變革影響力的理解。
Rooted in the vast fields of positive psychology, and building upon previous research on meaningful music media experiences and their effects (Janicke & Oliver, 2015), this research explored ways where Christian music supports listeners in coping with the uncertainties of life and fostering gratitude, connectedness, compassion love towards others. Over the past decade, there has been a growing interest in exploring which specific media content can promote social good, well-being, and positive emotions. (Vorderer, 2011). However, the majority of media effects research has focused on examining the potential negative consequences of media exposure. Hence, it is imperative to utilize the tremendous potential which lies in meaningful music content to counteract the harmful and negative effects of media.

Through a quantitative approach, this research examined the prominence of transcendence, gratitude, connectedness, and compassion love in Christian music compared to pleasurable music. The study also explored the mediating role of gratitude in the relationship between Christian music and experiences of connectedness and compassion love. The findings of the study provide empirical evidence of the effects of Christian music on individuals’ well-being, as it exhibited a greater emphasis on transcendence, gratitude, connectedness, and compassionate love compared to pleasurable music. Engaging meaningfully with Christian music enhanced individuals’ sense of connectedness to the transcendent, concern for other’s well-being and capacity for compassionate love. Gratitude played a significant mediating role, facilitating these positive emotional experiences in response to Christian music. Conclusively, these findings contribute to our understanding of the transformative power of Christian music.

dc.description.abstract (摘要) 扎根於廣闊的正向心理學領域，借鑒了之前關於有意義性的音樂媒體體驗及其效果的研究（Janicke & Oliver, 2015），本研究探討了基督教音樂在幫助聽眾應對生活的不確定性、培養感恩、增進聯結以及對他人的慈愛。過去的十年間，對於探究哪些特定媒體內容能夠促進社會福祉、幸福感和正向情緒的興趣逐漸增加（Vorderer, 2011）。然而，大多數媒體效應研究都集中於探討接觸媒體可能產生的負面影響。因此，充分發揮有意義性的音樂內容所蘊含的潛力，以對抗媒體的有害和負面影響，變得至關重要。

通過量化方法，本研究對比了基督教音樂與享受性音樂中超凡體驗、感恩、聯結和慈愛的顯著性。該研究還探討了感恩在基督教音樂與聯結以及慈愛之間關係中的中介作用。研究結果為基督教音樂對個體幸福感的影響提供了實證證據，因為它在強調超凡、感恩、情感連結和慈愛的方面相較於幸福感音樂更為突出。與基督教音樂有意地互動可以增強個體與超凡的聯繫感，關心他人的幸福感並培養慈愛的能力。感恩在這些積極情感體驗與基督教音樂之間發揮了重要的中介作用。總之，這些研究結果有助於我們對基督教音樂帶來變革影響力的理解。		zh_TW
dc.description.abstract (摘要) Rooted in the vast fields of positive psychology, and building upon previous research on meaningful music media experiences and their effects (Janicke & Oliver, 2015), this research explored ways where Christian music supports listeners in coping with the uncertainties of life and fostering gratitude, connectedness, compassion love towards others. Over the past decade, there has been a growing interest in exploring which specific media content can promote social good, well-being, and positive emotions. (Vorderer, 2011). However, the majority of media effects research has focused on examining the potential negative consequences of media exposure. Hence, it is imperative to utilize the tremendous potential which lies in meaningful music content to counteract the harmful and negative effects of media.

Through a quantitative approach, this research examined the prominence of transcendence, gratitude, connectedness, and compassion love in Christian music compared to pleasurable music. The study also explored the mediating role of gratitude in the relationship between Christian music and experiences of connectedness and compassion love. The findings of the study provide empirical evidence of the effects of Christian music on individuals’ well-being, as it exhibited a greater emphasis on transcendence, gratitude, connectedness, and compassionate love compared to pleasurable music. Engaging meaningfully with Christian music enhanced individuals’ sense of connectedness to the transcendent, concern for other’s well-being and capacity for compassionate love. Gratitude played a significant mediating role, facilitating these positive emotional experiences in response to Christian music. Conclusively, these findings contribute to our understanding of the transformative power of Christian music.		en_US
