SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY ANALYSIS ON THE FORMATION OF ENDOGENOUS MUSIC LEARNING PREFERENCE
Abstract
Music learning preference reflects the emotions, identity and cultural background of the learners. With the aid of social psychology, this paper explores the factors affecting music learning preference, and expounds the formation mechanism of endogenous preference, considering the diversity of social cultures. The research data were collected through a questionnaire survey on college students who are interested in music learning. The results show that music learning preference manifests self-identity and identity recognition; social background, gender, identity and status are all endogenous factors for music learning preference; music learning preference is related to subcultures like identity crisis, personality and fashion. This paper provides a guide on the application of psychological theories in music learning.
