Wass, Hannelore; And Others
Omega: Journal of Death and Dying, v23 n3 p199-206 1991
Administered questionnaire to 120 adolescent offenders in detention centers to study rock music preferences and views of themes advocating homicide, suicide, and satanic practices (HSSR). Found that HSSR fans were more likely to be white, school dropouts, and spend more time listening to music. Findings suggest relationship between preference for rock music with destructive themes and antisocial behavior. (Author/PVV)
