What Our Favorite Artists Say About Us
What does our music taste say about us? According to science, a lot. [1] X Research source Here's a breakdown:
- High Extroversion: If you have high extroversion, you're more likely to listen to pop, rock, and electronic.
- Open-mindedness: If you have high openness, you're more likely to listen to a wide range of genres and more likely to enjoy experimental genres, like jazz and classical music.
- Conscientiousness: If you're more conscientious, you're more likely to listen to country or classical music.
- Agreeableness: If you're more agreeable, you're more likely to listen to blues or classical music.
- Neuroticism:
If you're more neurotic, you're more likely to enjoy familiar music, or music you've already heard.
If none of these music types speak to you, take a look at what your favorite genre says instead:
- Pop: Confident, extroverted, and hard-working. Potentially also less creative.
- Rock: Creative, gentle, and introverted. Potentially also lower self-esteem.
- Dance: High openness to experience, but lower scores for gentleness. Also tended to be bold and outgoing.
- Rap: Friendly and high self-esteem.
- Country: Emotionally stable, less open to new experiences.
- Indie: Anxious, intellectual, and lower self-esteem.
- Classical: Creative, confident, but more introverted.
- Jazz: Extroverted, confident, and easy-going. [2] X Research source
