Abstract
This preliminary investigation examined the relationship between creative personality traits and musical experience. Creative personality traits were hypothesized to be positively correlated with musical experience. Two self-report measures, the Creative Personality Scale and the Scale of Musical Experience, were designed for this study. Initial analyses showed that both measures designed for this study were reliable and valid. Students (n = 150) from Introduction to Psychology and Music classes participated in the study. Results from correlational analyses showed that there was a positive correlation (r =.34, p <.01) between creative personality traits and musical experiences.
