Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate if there was a significant difference between the number of songs on the mobile phones of music majors versus non-music majors. The sample contained N = 30 students (n = 2 groups) recruited from the University of Kansas. Participants were asked about their majors and how many songs were on their mobile phones. The data was analyzed through a t-test. For collecting the data, I asked participants these three questions: (a) What is your major? (b) Are you an undergraduate or graduate student? (c) How many total songs are on your mobile phone, including all music-listening applications you used? Based on t-test results, there was no statistically significant difference (t(28) = 1.72, p = .097) between the number of songs on the mobile phones of music majors versus non-music majors.
