RE: Has there ever been a study done on the effect of different music on different personality types?

Posted by dbphd on July 15, 2017 at 11:00:57:
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.
