| Summary: | Studies of music-based interventions have found that engagement in participatory music has positive effects. However, taking part in music activities in everyday life may have different effects. Inthis study we analyzed data collected from 902 university students in Beijing, China, and examined the mediating effects of social self-efficacy, resilience, and social support in the association of participatory music engagement with social anxiety. We found that participatory music engagement was negatively associated with social anxiety, and that social self-efficacy, resilience, and social support mediated this association. This study extends understanding of the effects of participatory music engagement among university students. Implications for theory and practice are discussed. |
