Adaptation and validation into Spanish of the brief scale of mood regulation through music (B-MMR).
Article in BMC psychology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundMusic plays a crucial role in mood regulation by influencing emotions, reducing stress, and enhancing overall well-being. Few instruments measure the use of music as a mood regulatory strategy. This study aimed to adapt and validate the Brief Music in Mood Regulation Scale (B-MMR), a 21-item self-report instrument, to the Spanish language.
methodData was analysed from 429 Spanish students and was collected between September and December 2024. The B-MMR was used alongside the Basic Emotions Questionnaire. A confirmatory factor analysis, reliability, invariance analysis and external validity tests were conducted.
resultsConfirmatory factor analysis of the B-MMR with 7 factors and 3-item each demonstrated robust indicators of global adjustment replicating the original structure of the questionnaire, as well as satisfactory reliability and validity data. The invariance analysis showed homogeneity in the measurement model.
conclusionsThe Spanish version of the B-MMR is a valuable instrument to further understand music's psychological impact on mood in the Spanish population.
