Relationship Between the IPAT Music Preference Test of Personality and E, S, and T Scores on the Guilford-Zimmerman Temperament Survey
Abstract
Since the time of Aristotle, the universal and immediate connection between musical expression and emotional life has been recognized. The many indications that unconscious needs gain satisfaction through the medium of music have long pointed to musical preference as an effective means of penetrating to deeper aspects of personality. It appears, however, that the IPAT Music Preference Test of Personality (abbreviated MPT) developed by Cattell and his associates in conjunction with the Music Research Foundation is the first standardized test which tries to measure personality through musical preference.
