Reflective thinking as exemplified in musical decision-making

Abstract

dc:description

"Two forms of data served as the basis for this inquiry into the extent of reflective thinking represented by musical decision making. Articles written by pianists, arrangers, and conductors served as primary sources from extant literature. A verbal protocol representing the ""stream of consciousness"" data gathering technique was produced by six subjects representing outstanding achievement in their fields; two pianists, two arrangers and two instrumental conductors. A series of task representative of opportunities for decision making structured the data gathering procedure."
