Abstract

This study aimed to determine the difference in mental health condition and emotional regulation skill between musicians and non-musicians. Researchers enrolled musicians and non-musicians, both aged 19–40 years, and divided them according to their musical activity based on the classification of Hanna-Plady and MacKay (2011). A total of 679 participants consisting of 338 musicians and 341 non-musicians were analyzed. Mental health was measured using the Mental Health Inventory-5 developed by Veit and Ware (1983), and emotional regulation was measured using the Difficulties in Emotional Regulation Scale developed by Gratz and Roemer (2003). This research found that mental health and emotional regulation were significantly different between musicians and non-musicians. In addition, the musicians had significantly higher levels of mental health and emotional regulation than non-musicians.
