An Arts-Based Inquiry into Affective Experiences with Music: Priming Experiment Data

<p dir="ltr">This dataset contains the data from a priming experiment, aimed at investigating whether listening to different music induces shifts in one's self-construal. In this study, participants completed a pre-test questionnaire regarding their self-construal. Thereafter, participants were randomly assigned to one of three music conditions: Chinese music, Western music, or control condition (no music). Participants then completed the post-test questionnaire regarding their self-construal. Participants also completed a demographic questionnaire about their age, gender, disability, nationality, race/ethnicity, education level, musical identity, and years of musical training.</p><p dir="ltr">This study received ethical approval by the University of Sheffield's ethics review procedure, as administered by the Department of Music (application reference #061030).</p>
