Due to limited space, this paper does not deal with any methodological issues identified in this review. Nevertheless, important issues are highlighted in a forthcoming paper by Pothoulaki et al.

3. The second sentence in the section “Communication and expression improvements” on page 80 should read:

In particular, Bunt & Marston-Wyld (1995) suggested that music seemed to improve communication and a sense of “togetherness”, as indicated by “brainstorms” of participants.
