A study compared the tastes of volunteers’ music with their score on a personality test. To the researchers’ surprise, there was a link between the two! The study is attempting to find a way to identify psychopaths without them knowing it.
The scientists at New York University found out certain songs were loved by the psychos. They played 260 songs for 200 people and found that those with the highest psychopathic scores were big fans of Blackstreet’s “No Diggity” and Eminem’s “Lose Yourself.” Volunteers who were fans of The Knack’s “My Sharona” and Sia’s “Titanium” had the lowest psychopathic scores.
The results are preliminary.
