charakterized in emotion psychology as affects, then music therapy has
to consult affect-systems. Beyond that, music therapy research also needs
to distinguish which emotion is an affect and which is more a cognition
or behavior etc. In older and newer German emotion psychology one can
find a very strong system of affects in the context of psychobiology. It is
to see in Figure 104.
Figure 104: (Wosch 2002, 253) – affects and emotion-process -
This began with the work of Hans Lungwitz (1970) and it was further
developed in newer EEG-emotion-research of Wielant Machleidt (1989,
1994; Gutjahr e.a. 1994; Brüggenwerth e.a. 1994). The five affects,
which are written in capitel letters on the figure are Lungwitz‘s five basic
affects. Machleidt developed the ideas of Lungwitz further. He offers the
only closed process of emotion in all emotion and affect systems of
emotion psychology. Mary Priestley gave seven emotions values based
on the emotion psychology of the fifties. It is very interesting that these
values are similar to the process, which Lungwitz and Machleidt describe
