Abstract
In this study to construct a mood scale that was specific to listening to music, appropriate items were selected preliminarily. Three hundred three university students were presented 70 adjectives by a questionnaire and asked to rate how frequent they feel each mood after listening to music in their daily lives on a four‐point scale. A factor analysis were completed on the mood items and yielded five factors indicating suffering, comfortableness, solemnness and aggression, calmness, and sadness, respectively. Items with high loading on these factors were selected to construct a musical mood scale and any of them were modified because they might have an obscure meaning.
