In tests on 167 children who played the piano or other instruments, they found their answer to personality tests could【C8】______how likely it was for them to continue their music lessons. Those who were more outgoing and conscientious were more likely to continue to play.
"We were【C9】______by the fact that kids who take music lessons are particularly good students. In school they actually do better than you would predict from their IQ, so【C10】______something else is going on," Professor Schellenberg told the American Association for the Advancement of Science(AAAS)annual conference in Boston. "So we thought that personality might be the personality. "
