The doctor-patient relationship in rock and roll music.
J Med Pract Manage. 2006 Nov-Dec;22(3):162-5
Authors: Lazarus A
An analysis of rock songs in which physicians are central characters, combined with archival events and commentary from the singers and songwriters, sheds light on doctor-patient relationships as seen through popular culture. Rock and roll music attributes special psychological significance to physicians. Musicians project their personal problems through love songs and songs that deal with sex, drugs, and death. In rock songs, physicians frequently represent a cure for lovesickness. Rock musicians often die prematurely from self-inflicted behaviors, reaffirming the connection between their music and the medical profession.

Young People’s Exposure to Loud Music A Summary of the Literature.
Am J Prev Med. 2007 Aug;33(2):124-33
Authors: Vogel I, Brug J, van der Ploeg CP, Raat H
OBJECTIVES: This descriptive summary of the literature provides an overview of the available studies (published before October 2006) on sociodemographic, psychosocial, and other correlates of risk and protective behaviors for hearing loss in young people aged 12 to 25 years. METHODS: Publications were identified by a structured search in PubMed, PsycINFO, and Web of Science, and by scrutinizing the reference lists of relevant articles. The protection motivation theory was used as the theoretical framework for categorizing the psychosocial correlates. RESULTS: Thirty-three papers were included that identified several sociodemographic and psychosocial correlates, such as age, gender, school level, ethnicity, music preference, physical activity, social influence, and free supply of hearing protection. CONCLUSIONS: For the development of effective interventions we recommend theory-based longitudinal studies among those frequently exposed to loud music to assess these correlates in greater depth.
