Abstract

People who engage in musical activities may, on average, share certain personality features. For example, performing music in front of audiences may require greater extraversion. In contrast, long and solitary practice sessions may require greater introversion and conscientiousness. Research has established some links between dimensions of personality and indicators of engagement with music, for example, specific personality profiles for musicians/non-musicians. For example, openness is usually linked to musical involvement. However, research in the area is scarce and it remains unclear which specific aspects of musical engagement are linked to personality; how these links establish in the course of development; and whether these links are affected by culture. This article reports data collected with several measures of personality (Big Five personality scales) and a comprehensive measure of engagement with music—the musical sophistication index (Gold-MSI) in three countries: Germany (N = 1,114), Russia (N = 346), and the United Kingdom (N = 751). We applied a graphical network modeling approach to investigate the patterns of association among the measures. Our results found a number of consistent musical sophistication-personality associations across the three samples, with the strongest link being between the Gold-MSI emotions subscale and the personality trait openness, which was found in all three samples.

个性和音乐参与度：三个青少年样本的网络建模结果

一般来说，从事音乐活动的人可能具有某些共同的性格特征。例如，在观众面前表演音乐可能需要更大的外向性。相比之下，长时间的单独练习可能需要更强的内向性和责任心。研究已经建立了人格维度与音乐投入指标之间的一些联系，例如，音乐家/非音乐家的特定性格特征。例如，开放性通常与音乐投入有关。然而，这一领域的研究很少，目前还不清楚音乐投入的哪些具体方面与个性有关;这些联系是如何在发展过程中建立起来的;以及这些联系是否受到文化的影响。本文报告了在德国(N = 1114)、俄罗斯(N = 346)和英国(N = 751)这三个国家收集的几种人格测量方法(大五人格量表)和对音乐投入的综合测量方法——音乐成熟度指数(Gold-MSI)的数据。我们采用图形网络建模方法来研究这些措施之间的关联模式。我们的研究结果在三个样本中发现了许多一致的音乐复杂性与人格的关联，其中最强烈的联系是在Gold-MSI情感子量表和人格特质开放性之间，这在三个样本中都发现了。

期刊介绍： Psychology of Music and SEMPRE provide an international forum for researchers working in the fields of psychology of music and music education, to encourage the exchange of ideas and to disseminate research findings. Psychology of Music publishes peer-reviewed papers directed at increasing the scientific understanding of any psychological aspect of music. These include studies on listening, performing, creating, memorising, analysing, describing, learning, and teaching, as well as applied social, developmental, attitudinal and therapeutic studies. Special emphasis is placed on studies carried out in naturalistic settings, especially those which address the interface between music psychology and music education.
