Jun 21, 2018 at 19:29 comment added Bryan Krause @StevenJeuris Possibly helpful: scholar.google.com/scholar?cites=890087114670300661 there is a published proceedings on the "Hooked" app you describe, and the articles citing it suggest that there is some at least initial forays into more academic research in the area. Most of it seems outside psych, though.

Jun 19, 2018 at 9:28 comment added Steven Jeuris Possibly related: Are there any studies that examine the phenomenon of songs stuck in the head? Although I can't tell for sure since I'm asking this question 'by proxy' and the original OP specifically stated he was not interested in 'songs being stuck in one's head'.
Jun 19, 2018 at 9:23 comment added Chris Rogers I have heard the earworms term before but not in a scientific discussion or with a paper, but that is not to say it won't be used in scientific literature.
Jun 19, 2018 at 9:13 comment added Steven Jeuris The about page from the Hooked! app in fact does provide some other terminology: "The name also refers to the 'cognitive itch' that is caused by 'earworms': fragments of music that you cannot get out of your head, no matter how hard you try."
