Abstract

This paper explores the viability of a questionnaire, which measures students of teacher training in the aspects of their musical attitude. In order to accomplish the aim, a pilot study was designed. The sample (N = 60) is based on students specialized in music and science and participating in the survey on a voluntary basis. The measuring instrument ignores the aspects of specialization, gender and grade and time stability. Since these aspects were statistically verified, this questionnaire can be applied to measure and evaluate the -musical attitude and its development. The modification of the responses indicates the development.
