In Reply to: RE: Has there ever been a study done on the effect of different music on different personality types? posted by artemus on July 12, 2017 at 16:54:48
If by study you mean you mean a controlled experiment, I suspect the answer is no, because the variables are not well defined. Personality types? Music types? Neither of these variables lend themselves to rigorous definition. And then there's the issue of mood of the listener who at one time might prefer cool jazz and at another a rip-roaring large orchestration. Contemplating how many angels can dance on the head of a pin may be a better use of your time.
Follow Ups:
I asked if it had been done. I asked on a whim because of my experience. I suspect it could be done. Most things worthwhile are challenging. And most things have their detractors as well as those who adopt the findings. At least you didn't get hung up on Myers Briggs.
Good post IMO.

You paid HOW MUCH for that electrical receptacle?!!! Are YOU nuts?
He has pointed out the same problems I have been pointing out.
No-one has yet come up with a reliable and consistent way of defining personality types.
Nor will anyone - ever - come up with a reliable and consistent way of defining different musics, in any useful way for such a study as you wish were possible.
Do try to get your head about the quite precise points about these issues that have been made to you, in this thread.
Or admit that you can't or won't.

are not a good mix. Yer just one of many throughout history who have called something impossible only to be shown a fool when it is done. But even if it is, you will find some fault with it. That's your nature. Like you, I used to know it all. But I was a teenager. I grew up. You should consider that....if you can. Some never do.
Now go start your own thread about the shortcomings of MB. I may even join in agreement. But even if I agree, you will still be argumentative.

The USMCorps has a number of colourful phrases, for people who can't cope with criticism or correction.One of them is a TS chit.
Tough Shit.
In Australia we call what has been done with you, being 'drummed', or given the drum. A dose of reality.
Wanting things you can't have - because they're infeasible, or not at all useful, seems to me to be a tad childish.
More so than wanting something that is feasible, like another lolly or ice-cream.
That others trained and expert in the field of psychology have, in this thread, confirmed my points in that area, should be enough to give you pause.
But no, you think I am being big headed. There are three fingers pointing back at you, mate!

Although my interest was binaural processing, I took a "personality" course from JP Guilford who opened the first class with a statement to drop the course if you think it will improve your personality. His approach was a factor analytic description of personality, and 60+ years ago he was already nearing 100 "pure" factors. I was more interested in the analysis than the factors.

Thanks, Tim.
