Agreeable individuals preferred upbeat and conventional music. Agreeableness has also been shown to correlate with more easy-going, relaxed music preferences. Additionally, listeners with high agreeableness displayed an intense emotional response to music which they had never before listened to. Agreeableness is also a good predictor of the emotional intensity experienced from all types of music, both positive and negative. Those scoring high in agreeableness tend to have more intense emotional reactions to all types of music.
