Where they like to work; work place preference of 228 electrical workers in terms of music

Abstract

A group of 228 industrial employees were polled, by means of a new "tear with your fingers" method, on preference for hearing music during work hours. The majority favored having music, the modal choice being to hear music "frequently." Some evidence is presented on relationships between preferences and age and sex. "This study might suggest that, when other factors are equal, workers will go to job locations where they can hear music while they work." (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
