I'm a bit of a movie buff. There are certain movies that never fail to engage me emotionally. Music tends to engage me on an emotional level as well. I tend to notice when music is used to enhance the reaction in a movie. There aren't a lot of audiobooks what cause me to react at that level. Some of that may be that I mostly listen to audiobooks where I have already read the book, so I'm already familiar with what's going to happen.
I didn't say it shouldn't be discussed, but it's a dumb study. I am scornful of researchers telling people that their scientific methods are more accurate than what people believe about their own emotions.
