在評論中留言

Your taste in music says a lot about your personality.

謝謝觀看！

Have you ever wondered why you like certain music?

[音樂]

Have you ever wondered why your favorite songs might sound absolutely terrible to others?

The answer lies in our unique personalities.

Numerous studies have shown that if you like a certain musical genre, you're probably going

to have certain personality traits.

For example, a 2004 study found that extroverts were more likely interested in music in a

general sense, but they were also more likely to enjoy pop music.

That's just one example and there's tons of research on this one topic.

Think about your favorite song, what does it say about your personality?

Music therapy helps children with autism.

Remember what we said about music lighting up the entire brain?

Well, this makes music therapy an ideal choice for children with autism.

When both hemispheres are activated, children are self-aware while still forming relationships

with others.

Research has shown that this type of therapy is incredibly beneficial for autistic children

as it encourages them to interact with their instruments and communicate with others in

a band, ultimately creating music in a collaborative effort.

What do you think your favorite songs says about you?
