psychological effect on human beings and that regardless of the level of influence, music preferences and

personality characteristics of individuals are closely linked. In fact, it is estimated that individuals have a

personality based on their preferred music types (1,2). Based on this information, it is aimed to reveal the music

listening profile of 300 students in Van Yüzüncü Yıl University by describing their preferred music types

according to mood changes and to determine the reasons for choosing the music types they are listening to.
