Several researchers have studied the effect of music independently
on both health and happiness, although no research has considered
the relationship between music and the other two (i.e. health and
happiness) within a single design. Data was collected from 895
participants among which 301 were White British students and 594

Analysis revealed that there were significant positive relationships
between interest in listening to music and time spent listening to
music and measures of both health and happiness... |
