摘要：This study aimed at to adapt the STOMP (Short Test Of Music Preference),
jointing evidences of its factor validity and reliability. Participants were two
hundred undergraduate students from a public University in João Pessoa city.
They were 22 years old (SD = 4.77; 93.5% of them with age raging from 18 to 30
years), most of them female (51%), single (88%), of an economic middle class
(60%), students of Psychology (29%) or Management (18%). Corroborating previous
studies, a four factors solution of musical style was identified, as follows:
Reflexive & Complex (α = .74), Up Beat & Conventional (α = .59),
Intensive & Rebellious (α = .64), and Energetic & Rhythmic (α = .60).
When the uni- and bi-factor models were compared with the four-factor model,
this last revealed itself more adequate: χ²/df = 2.59, GFI = .89, AGFI = .84,
and RMSEA = .09; Δχ² (5) = 128.25, p < .001. Differences in musical
preference were observed according to gender. Specifically, females repported to
like of Up Beat and Conventional style, meanwhile males indicated to prefer
Intensive and Rebelious style. These findings are critically discussed,
assessing the need of including new musical styles, and suggesting future
studies about this theme.
