Abstract
The research was carried out to determine the effect of the well-being of pre-service music teachers on the level of anxiety they may encounter during the stage performances. For this purpose, the well-being and music performance anxieties (MPA) of the pre-service music teachers were examined, and the relationship between the two situations was revealed. A total of 86 students (girls n= 51, boys n=35), educating in the Department of Music Education at Bursa Uludağ University Faculty of Education, participated in the study. Data were collected with Student Demographic Information Form, Perma Well-being Scale and Kenny Music Performance Anxiety Inventory (KMPAI). To analyze the relationship between PERMA and KMPAI scores by gender, t-test and to analyze the relationship between PERMA and KMPAI scores by education years, ANOVA was used. Pearson correlation coefficient was calculated to determine the relationship between PERMA and KMPAI scores. While there is no significant difference in the well-being and music performance anxiety of pre-service music teachers according to gender, and education year, a negative significant relationship was found between the PERMA general scores and all sub-dimensions scores with KMPKE. At the end of the investigation suggestions for the solution of the problem have been presented.
