	Summary of the results WHO took part in the study? WHAT did I find out? What values am I talking about? Music preferences across four cultures *Preferences for international music styles* *Preferences for national music styles* Music preferences and values *Rock and Metal music* *Pop and Hip Hop music* *Classical music and Jazz* Music preferences and national identity The second research question was: are preferences for national music styles related to national identity? First, liking traditional music styles was related to higher national identity in the Philippines, in New Zealand and in Germany. This is shown by the significant partial correlations between traditional music styles and national identity in the diagram below. Specifically, people who identify strongly with their country are likely to enjoy traditional national music styles in these three countries. However, this is not the case in Brazil. This may be due to the selection of traditional music styles that are present only in specific regions of Brazil (Maracatu, Bumba-Meu-Boi, Baião and Frevo). Therefore, these music styles might be related to local identities rather than identification with the whole country. Looking at popular national music styles, I found a significant link to national identity in Brazil and Philippines, whereas popular styles are not related to national identity in Germany or New Zealand. This means that the more Brazilians and Filipinos identify with their country, the more they enjoy popular Brazilian and Filipino music, respectively. In summary, individuals' preferences for traditional music styles can be interpreted as indicators or symbols of identification with one's country in the Philippines, in New Zealand and in Germany. More precisely, the more someone from the Philippines, New Zealand or Germany is proud of his or her country, the more he or she likes Kulintang, Kapa Haka or Volksmusik; or vice versa. Furthermore, popular music styles can be symbols of commitment to one's country. This is the case in our two non-western samples from Brazil and the Philippines. The more someone from Brazil or the Philippines identifies as Brazilian or Filipino, the more he or she enjoys listening to MPB (Música Popular Brasileira) or OPM (Original Pilipino Music), respectively.
