There are distinct personality traits
tied to the beats that get your feet
tapping. The topic fascinated Doctor
of Music Psychology Adrian North,
who undertook a three-year study of
36,518 people across 60 countries that
investigated 104 music styles and how
these linked to personality. The report,
conducted at Heriot-Watt University,
found personality factors were related
to both a liking for the musical styles
and the participants' reasons for
listening to a music genre.
"People do actually define themselves
through music and relate to other
people through it, but we haven't
known in detail how music is connected
to identity," Adrian says.
What follows is a breakdown of his
findings and how you can use it to
yolk the perfect festival to your
unique psychology.

THE PERSONALITY FACTOR
THINKING OUT LOUD
1. You find making friends a
piece of cake...
Yes, only once they get to know
me a little though.
No questions, I get a kick out
meeting new people.
It can depend on what kind of
person they are, but for the most
part, yes.
Of course yes, what's not
to love.
Not always, sometimes it's
really tough.

2. When someone makes a
controversial statement just
to provoke a response...
I'll say nothing and go with
the flow.
I'll voice my opinion so they
know where I stand.
I'll quietly discuss why they
feel that way to tease out their
motivations.
I don't care - I'll join them to
stir the pot for a bit of fun.
I'll pretend I didn't hear it,
don't want to rock the boat.

3. When faced with a
problem my initial
thought are...
I'll persevere at it until I
crack it.
If I can't figure it out I'm
confident my friends will be
able to help me.
I'm creative enough for the
solution to present itself to me.

I've got this, don't worry
about it.
I'll think outside the box to
find the best possible solution.
4. When things aren't done
as well as they should be, my
typical response is...
To feel a little nervous,
but persist to make the
situation right.
I'll find the right people who
can help to fix it.
I'll calmly figure out how to
rectify the situation creatively.
My displeasure won't be
kept in - I'll tell the person
responsible.
I'll probably leave them as
they are, things don't have to
be perfect.

5. In an emergency situation
or crisis, my first reaction is...
I'll be nervous at first, but
will persevere to find the
best solution.
Call for help from bystanders
or emergency services.
I'll surmount the challenge
calmly and gently.
I'm confident the best solution
will present itself to me.
I'll let someone else do it,
they'll probably be better
than me.
