The present study explored the correlation between music preference and mental health of college students to make an empirical contribution to research in this field. The self-reported music preference scale and positive mental health scale of college students were adopted to conduct a questionnaire survey in college students. Common method variance was conducted to test any serious common method bias problem. No serious common method bias problem was observed. The results showed that college students' preference for pop music, Western classical music, and Chinese traditional music has a significant and positive correlation with their mental health. Furthermore, college students' preference for heavy music has a significant and inverse correlation with their mental health. This research presents a correlational study; therefore, no causality can be inferred.
本研究探讨了大学生音乐偏好与心理健康之间的相关性,以期为该领域的研究做出实证贡献。采用自编的大学生音乐偏好量表和积极心理健康量表对大学生进行问卷调查。采用共同方法偏差检验是否存在严重的共同方法偏差问题,未观察到严重的共同方法偏差问题。结果表明,大学生对流行音乐、西方古典音乐和中国传统音乐的偏好与他们的心理健康呈显著正相关。此外,大学生对重金属音乐的偏好与他们的心理健康呈显著负相关。本研究为相关性研究,因此无法推断因果关系。
