From http://www.thisdayinmusic.com

Sept 11th 2006, a study from the University of Leicester found that more than a quarter of classical music fans had tried cannabis. Researchers were trying to find out what people's taste in music revealed about their lifestyles. The UK study also revealed that blues buffs are the most likely to have received a driving penalty.

Hip hop and dance music fans were more likely to have multiple sex partners and were among the biggest drug-takers surveyed. More than 2,500 people were interviewed for the study, which was published in the scientific journal Psychology of Music.

Is that at once? or over a period of time?

Did the study also mention that 99.5% of all graduate students working on grant studies are so hard up for meaningful work that they will attempt to measure anything, however ineffectively and unscientifically?

Honestly, would you really feel good about calling such rubbish your life's work?

+2 for Rudy.

Master's thesis here was real world and no grant, here, not (interesting but) 'unecessary' stats.
