| Tiivistelmä: | In this article the authors present an empirical examination of the "patterns of cultural choice" in the musical domain in Italy. The main goal of the study is to verify whether musical tastes in Italy are diversified, with the presence of a group of "cultural omnivores". In the empirical analysis the authors simultaneously evaluate the probability of choosing different musical genres. Through the specification of the set of alternatives into three groupings of musical genres "only classical music", "only popular music" and "all music"they were able to notice the relative effect of various socio-economic characteristics on the likelyhood of having "univorous" or "omnivorous" musical likings. They find that age, gender and education are significant predictors of an omnivorous taste. |
