A meta-analysis (2017, background): “Some studies found a positive association of the dimension upbeat and conventional with extraversion, agreeableness, and conscientiousness (Delsing et al., 2008; Rentfrow & Gosling, 2003) and a negative association with openness to experience (Rentfrow & Gosling, 2003; Tekman, 2009; Zweigenhaft,…”
The role of music in adolescent development: much more than the same old song (2013, background): “Extraversion and Openness) can predict music tastes in adolescence (Delsing, ter Bogt, Engels, & Meeus, 2008 ).”
Toward a better understanding of the relation between music preference, listening behavior, and personality (2012, methodology): “For instance, while rap and dance genres grouped together in the present research, these genres are grouped separately in other research (e.g., Delsing et al., 2008; George et al., 2007).”
