schedule
• The „WHAT, WHY, WHEN, and HOW“ of the research project
• Theoretical assumptions• New contexts of musical behaviour• Research results
3
The study
• Extensive quantitative survey in spring 2009(!)• Face-to-face interviews (with 1042 Austrians)• Representative for the Austrian population
(gender, age, education, occupation, profession, migration background, size of home, regional belonging)
4
Research objectives
• Problem-oriented quantitative survey on musical behaviour;
• consideration of social structural characteristics (age, education, gender, …);
• regard on high data quality.
5
Fundamental assumptions
• Identity construction by the way of affirmation and distinction is one of the main development tasks of young people.
• Demonstrative music reception is one of the most proved strategies of distinction.
• Music reception behaviour is strongly affected by age and education of the listeners.
6
Outcomes of the digitalisation
• Recorded music no longer requires a physical storage medium.
• Via „the internet“ a great deal of music is available at any time (without payment).
7
Outcomes of the „web 2.0“
• Every „visitor“ of „the internet“ not only can receive information but is able to take part in the shaping of its contents.
• Past and present use automatically impacts future supplies.

Synapsis on musical behaviour of the young people in Austria
• The young people show a new approach to recorded music.
• This new musical behaviour is indeed in strong contrast to the listening habits of the CD era.
• Now as before musical preferences are most influenced by education.
