What does "Classicists" have in mind ? What are the "Metalheads" in the soul ? Very extensive research was conducted in 2008. with the aim of establishing links with the preference of musical genres personality traits. Even 36,000 participants from around the world participated in this study, led by Professor Adrian North, of Heriot-Watt University. It is also the largest study ever conducted on this topic ... The results obtained are, as expected, and so surprising. In any case, one thing is indisputable - with so many large sample of people interviewed, this study can certainly be regarded as sufficiently reliable and valid. Keep this in mind when reading the results ... BLUES - fans of this musical genre characterized by the following traits: high self-esteem, creativity, openness, gentleness and relaxation. JAZZ - people who prefer this music genre are: high self-esteem, creative, open and relaxed. CLASSICAL MUSIC - they are characterized by: high self-esteem, creativity, introversion (focus on their feelings, closeness) and relaxation RAP / HIP-HOP - people who like this are high self-esteem and open to other people. COUNTRY / FOLK - people who love this genre are: a working, open minded, conservative views. INDIE (independent alternative rock) – low self-esteem, creative, not gentle, they do not like to work. ROCK / HEAVY METAL - low self-esteem, creative, don't like to work,soft and relaxed.!!! hahah omg FUNKY / SOUL - high self-esteem, creative, open, gentle, relaxed You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Blues fans have high self-esteem, are creative, outgoing, gentle and at ease Jazz fans have high self-esteem, are creative, outgoing and at ease Classical music fans have high self-esteem, are creative, introvert and at ease Rap fans have high self-esteem and are outgoing Opera fans have high self-esteem, are creative and gentle Country and western fans are hardworking and outgoing Reggae fans have high self-esteem, are creative, not hardworking, outgoing, gentle and at ease Dance fans are creative and outgoing but not gentle Indie fans have low self-esteem, are creative, not hard working, and not gentle Bollywood fans are creative and outgoing Rock/heavy metal fans have low self-esteem, are creative, not hard-working, not outgoing, gentle, and at ease Chart pop fans have high self-esteem, are hardworking, outgoing and gentle, but are not creative and not at ease Soul fans have high self-esteem, are creative, outgoing, gentle, and at ease Same idea. Basically CLASSiCAL and HEAVY METAL folks are the same but in all but age. Metal Heads are Younger, typically. But as the article pointed out, many Metal Heads dig the classical works of Wagner for the same reason they like metal. It's big, brash and has a bit of drama to it. QUOTE (MonkeyDAthos @ Nov 28 2011, 06:41 PM) ROCK / HEAVY METAL - low self-esteem, creative, don't like to work,soft and relaxed.!!! hahah omg that's me, yep. Lazy, creative, relaxed Metal Heads UNITE! And stop working! hehehe. Seriously though, very interesting study. I wonder if there is a Good/Evil variable?

There's basically either one of 2 possible personality types according to this research... any musical taste apart from metal and indie is basically the same, give or take a few words. I don't quite believe that somehow QUOTE (Todd Simpson @ Dec 1 2011, 02:19 AM) Here is a slightly different wording from an american Psych site.

This stuff is sure amusing though isn't it, whether it's true or not I'm sure we could add some possible personality traits on to these ourselves if we have a think about it. Let's see.. Country & Western - are they also small minded, homophobic rednecks with a fear of being different ? Rap - do they also have a tendency towards misogyny and the acquisition of material wealth ? Opera - Do they all talk posh and drive Jags ? I am joking of course, I don't really mean this ! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I don't quite believe that somehow ... One of my old friends is a social psychologist and he would be scathing of this type of work. There's a great book by a social historian, Nik Rose, called 'Governing the Soul' that takes apart the whole 'objective' claims of research such as this. Rose looks at the more industrial/work psychoogy and the rise in 'performance measurements' and employment based on the (quasi-)science of 'matching' personality profiles to emplyment etc. Another study (can't remember who by though - think it was David Guest) demonstrated that studies like this are about as accurate as astrological horoscopes for typing people - and in this case at least a horoscope would lead to 12 types as well rather than 2 You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
