Description
Summary:The definition of attachment is characterized as the emotional bond established between the baby and the caregiver. It is known that this bond, which can be described as emotional, is associated with consistency and continuity. Attachment styles help understand the ways individuals establish, maintain, and connect with other people during adolescence, adulthood, and old age. The attachment styles that the baby establishes with the caregiver in the early period of life affect adulthood and adolescence, the schema formation of interpersonal relationships in these periods, and the qualities of the relationships to be established. On the other hand, the influence of Turkish makams on people's emotions has a place in many different areas (confidence, strength, courage, and sadness). At this point, it is thought that individuals' attachment styles may have a match with their music preferences. With this connection, the study aimed to investigate the relationship between university students' attachment styles and Turkish makam preferences. Preferences for three of the Turkish makams (Isfahân, Kûçek, and Sabâ) are the subject of the research. For this purpose, the "Three-Dimensional Attachment Styles Scale" was applied to 384 university students after the makam recitals. The results of the analysis revealed that there was no significant relationship between attachment styles and Turkish makams (Isfahân, Kûçek, and Sabâ) preferences. In addition, Turkish makam preferences do not show any significant differences according to sex, age group, and attachment style. This research is a pioneering study investigating the relationship between Turkish makams and attachment styles. It is intended to serve as a resource for future studies.
