Music
students were compared with Arts students in their responses to Dvorak,
Brahms, Starvinsky, and Schonberg & Webern. Preference far Brahms
is related to closed-mindedness and preference for Stravinsky is
associated with lack of training; while responses to Dvorak and Schonberg & Webern
cannot be predicted from open-mindedness and music training. Theoretical
and instructional implications were discussed.
