The text states that goosebumps from listening to music are due to dopamine release in anticipation of the song's climax.
The claim that goosebumps from listening to music are caused by the release of dopamine is supported by multiple sources. Research shows that dopamine is released in the brain during peak emotional moments while listening to music. This release occurs in areas associated with pleasure and reward, such as the dorsal and ventral striatum. The studies cited confirm that pleasurable music can trigger dopamine release, correlating with the experience of chills or goosebumps. These findings indicate strong evidence supporting the claim.
