Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine whether a person's music taste has any effect on their personality i.e. People with same music taste display similar personalities. Music is a part of everyone's lives. People often associate music with pitch, rhythm, melody, etc. however, psychologists associate music with personality. These days music is even used as a form of therapy. It helps people cope with stress and promote human wellbeing. Music is said to improve intelligence and enhance the immune system as well as increase selfesteem and condence. Research has shown that music can be very helpful in the management of pain. One study of bromyalgia patients found that those who listened to music for just one hour a day experienced a signicant reduction in pain compared to those in a control group. Researchers at the University of Groningen showed in an experiment that listening to sad or happy music could not only put people in a different mood, but also change what people notice. People may dene their musical identity by wearing particular clothes, going to certain pubs, and using certain types of slang. Therefore, it is not so surprising that personality can relate to musical preference.
