  Speaker 1: Before we start this video, we just want to say
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: thank you for your support. We're happy to see that
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: the videos have provided value for many of you, and
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: we hope that we continue to deliver value and help
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: you through your problems. Is music the most powerful way
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: in which we express our personalities? Does our musical taste
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: say more about who we really are than the clothes
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: we wear or the friends we choose? How much can
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: you really learn about someone based on their favorite music?
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: We can't deny that music speaks to us. We connect
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: with music, we relate to its melodies, harmonies, and lyrics,
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: and a powerful tune can invoke incredible emotions within us.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: The psychological effect of music in the human brain has
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: been studied extensively, but what does your musical taste say
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: about you? Why we like certain genres. Most people find
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: themselves listening to one or two genres almost exclusively, but
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: have you ever stopped to wonder why you might be
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: attracted to pop, or metal, or classical? A number of
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: studies have examined this interesting subject with incredible results. Do
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: you like complex music like jazz or classical? According to
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: certain studies, you might be more creative or have a
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: higher IQ. Pop music lovers tend to be extroverted and honest.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: If you like rap music, you're probably pretty outgoing. Country
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: music fans are usually pretty conventional and hardworking. And metalheads
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: tend to be more introverted and could even suffer from
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: low self-esteem. Every single music genre says something about our personalities.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Why is certain music more nostalgic than others? One of
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: the most powerful emotions that music can evoke is nostalgia.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: A simple track can bring back tons of incredible memories,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: both joyful and sad, suddenly. Music flings us back in
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: time to a forgotten moment in our lives. But what
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: causes this? Why does some music seem more nostalgic than others?
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: An interesting 2010 study found that autobiographical music was most
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: likely to cause nostalgic emotions. Or in other words, music
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: that involved a real-life story from the perspective of the singer.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Even more interesting was the fact that music with mixed
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: emotions caused the most nostalgia, specifically a mixture of joy
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: and sadness. Perhaps this is because in reality, life itself
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: contains a mixture of both joy and sadness. Hey, before
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: we continue to the next point, we'd like to connect
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: with some of you who currently play music. Tag Psych2Go
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: in your video. We'll watch all of them and even
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: feature the best ones in our upcoming video to give
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: you a little exposure or a head start to your career. Anyhow,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: let's get back to the next point about music facts.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Why does some music give us the shivers? Have you
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: ever experienced a truly powerful piece of music? Was it
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: so powerful that you found yourself getting the shivers? Did
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: goosebumps start to appear along your arms? If so, you're
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: not the only one. This is a pretty common experience,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: but why does some music evoke such a powerful physical
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: reaction in us? A 2010 study set out to answer
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: this question, and they found that people who were more
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: open to new experiences were more likely to experience shivers
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: when listening to music. you're also more likely to have
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: this powerful reaction if you listen to tons of music
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: throughout each day. Funnily enough, the study found that it
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: doesn't really matter which genre you're listening to. Why do
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: some people love bass? The heavy, booming nature of bass
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: is a big part of popular music these days. Some
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: people absolutely love bass, and this musical element seems to
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: affect them in a deep way. But why are some
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: people so crazy about bass? One study found that males
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: are more likely to enjoy heavy bass in music. There's
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: even some suggestion that those who enjoy bass are more
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: likely to have antisocial tendencies and borderline personality disorders. But
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: these are of course very rare cases and correlation doesn't
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: always equal causation. Why athletes love pump-up music. There's definitely
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: a very specific type of music we listen to at
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: the gym. It's usually vigorous pump-up music with high BPM
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: that gets us motivated and excited. But why does this
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: music seem to be so fitting for athletic activity? One
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: study found a link between our music preferences and our
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: ideal self-image. Basically, people prefer music that they think is
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: most fitting to their own perception of themselves. Athletes love
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: vigorous music because they feel it fits with their dynamic
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: lifestyle and persona. Why teens love heavier music. We're all
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: familiar with that one stereotype of the angsty teen who
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: loves heavy metal. And sometimes this stereotype is a reality
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: for many teens. But have you ever wondered why some
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: teens seem drawn to heavy metal and heavier genres in general?
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: One study looked into this and found something very interesting. Apparently,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: teens with this music preference are more likely to feel
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: rejected and have low self-esteem. Although once again, this doesn't
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: mean that everyone who enjoys metal or heavy genres has
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: these issues. Why some people like repetitive music. Most of
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: the time, repetitive music is generally seen as a bad thing.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: But some music with repetitive elements can be calming, meditative,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: and relaxing. But why do some people prefer repetitive music?
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Some studies have suggested that those who are less open
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: to new experiences might be more likely to enjoy repetitive music.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: We're not saying there's anything wrong with either repetitive music
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: or being less open to new experiences. Some people are
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: just naturally more conservative, and there's nothing wrong with that,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: but it's definitely an interesting tidbit of information that sheds
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: light on the link between musical taste and personality. What
• 5:31
