Abstract
This study aimed to identify the effects of music interest, class satisfaction, and social support stress coping strategies on interpersonal and social adjustment of university students participating in a music appreciation activity-based class. A total of 55 male and female undergraduate students at C University in Region C in Korea were studied, and correlation analysis, ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis were conducted using SPSS program. The results of the analysis, the more time university students spent listening to music and the higher their social supportive stress coping strategies, the more significant their interpersonal adjustment was. In addition, among the music interest sub factors, attention in music had a significant positive effect on social adjustment. The results of this study call for learner-customized support, sensitive consideration, and cooperative support by university institutions and instructors. Based on the findings of this study, we suggest continued discussion and empirical research to verify the effectiveness and value of interpersonal and social adjustment through music appreciation-based activities and performing diverse and convergent music education practices among university students.
