Yeah... I'm pretty sure the soft sciences are really nothing more than a thin veneer of "scholarship" that the Jews wrap around their cultural biases to give them an air of validity. They have not been able to replicate any of these psychological studies including famous ones like "The Milgram Experiment", nor have they demonstrated any coherence in concepts like "Authoritarian Personality". Worse yet, when I say 13 do 50, they say correlation does not imply causation. Well then how do these worthless studies, with their terrible methodologies do anything at all? That is why these "sciences" are soft... because they are not in any way or shape, science. Now they are going to fill the literature with dubious studies that all point to mental pathology in white, Christian, conservatives so they can justify restricting our freedoms and murdering us when we refuse to submit.

This is the new tactic. Make it a matter of definition that if you are right of center you are mentally unstable. This in turn will be used as a red flag to disarm you and then to round you up.

They surveyed 379 Americans. That's practically enough to draw a wrong conclusion.

The talk of music reminds me of something, Youtube has been weirdly censoring german folk/marching music (which is great by the way) and completely removing pieces of history from the internet. Youtube is really bad.

maladaptive personality traits

What a fancy way of saying you don't drink the media kool-aide

Breaking news: If you do not drink the media kool-aid you are a danger to society!

This is the goal for them.

That's because fewer people listen to classical. They are outliers and are then more likely to have maladaptive behavior. The heavy metal genre population is softened because it's full of normal people as well because it's more enjoyable music.

That is a load of pseudoscience mumbo jumbo bullshit.

Normally I would chalk it up to opinion but the fact that the entire point of my post was to poke fun at so called scientists that drew hasty conclusions about the relationship between music preference and behavior based on little to no evidence... And then you make even more extreme conclusions about the relationship between music preference and behavior based on even less (zero) evidence. Try harder.

I only have my own experiences. In my experience most people I've known that listen to classical have slight aspergers and came from really weird families. Those people are more likely to have other outlying behavior some of which psychology will chalk up as "maladaptive."

Of course maladaptive really does in a way mean outlying. Drinking is maladaptive, yet most people do it, and I didn't see the article treating 90% of metal listeners as having maladaptive behavior. So what are they talking about when they use that term. Outlying behavior.

I'm just explaining what to me I think caused them to see what they saw. I consider psychology to have some of the most careless thinkers in it and I take anything they write with 50 tons of salt, so what I wrote wasn't meant as agreement.

> The researchers caution, however, that maladaptive traits and entertainment interests are not linked strongly enough to diagnose people based simply on the music and movies they like.

Don’t think that will hold up in court. This will just get you on a list that I’m sure we’re all on already.

An insult to the term "crock of shit".
