Abstract
Few studies have yet investigated the effect of music in video games on players. In studies found, likely moderating variables such as music and game preferences were often not considered. The following paper discusses the findings of a recent study on the influence of music and game preferences on the following dimensions perceived effects, distortion of concentration and the personal music preference. These scales were constructed via an explorative factor analysis of a questionnaire consisting of 146 items. The results show that the preference of the game-dimension Action/Shooter and Skill Games influences the intensity of the perceived and concentration, music preferences have no effect on either dimension.
