The presence of an image had a very highly significant effect on music tension ratings. A one- way ANOVA showed that subjects rating the music alone perceived less tension than subjects that rated the music with the presence of an image (p< .001, F=59.8).

Figure 6. Graph of the music-with-image liveliness rating deviation from the mean of the music extract as a function of the image-music congruence, separated by the image liveliness rating means. As can be seen in figure 4, the deviation of liveliness ratings for a given music excerpt depends both on the liveliness of the image and the congruence of the image and the music. Lively images will influence positively the liveliness ratings of music depending quite linearly on the congruence. Images with the lowest liveliness ratings will have the contrary effect depending as well on the congruence, although the congruence needs to be really strong (4 or 5) for the effect to be clear. Neutral images have little impact on the music. Figure 5 displays similar data: we can observe that the influence of image liveliness on music ratings happen for higher congruence ratings, while low congruence limit the impact. music ratings happen for higher congruence ratings, Figure 6 displays a similar pattern for music tension deviation. As with liveliness, the tension in music is linked to image tension depending on the congruence music-image.
