Studies on
personality and social media interaction suggest your musical tastes can tell others what kind of personality you have. If someone knows what kind of music you like, that might tell them something about your personality.
Other
research suggests your music preferences mirror your unique personality. So, people who already know you may be able to suggest music that you would like to hear.
For example, those who are more open might prefer mellow, sophisticated music like Billie Eilish’s “
What Was I Made For?” or intense music like Imagine Dragons’ “
Natural.”
The research found extroverts may lean toward contemporary music. Agreeable people prefer unpretentious music, like Garrett Kato & Elina’s “
Never Alone.” Conscientious people lean toward
unpretentious music or intense music like Marshmello’s “
Power.” People who are more anxious might prefer many different types of music.
