Descriptive statistics for the four well-being scales, the six MusEQ subscales, and the four ERS-ACA subscales.
| Scale | M (SD) |
|---|---|
| Well-being scales | |
| GAD7 | 13.4 (5.5) |
| PHQ9 | 18.4 (6.4) |
| UCLA Loneliness Before COVID-19 | 4.0 (1.8) |
| UCLA Loneliness Since COVID-19 | 3.3 (2.0) |
| MusEQ subscales | |
| Daily | 3.3 (0.9) |

| Perform | 2.6 (1.0) |
| Consume | 3.2 (0.9) |

GAD 7 ranged from 0 to 21, PHQ9 ranged from 0 to 27, and the UCLA scales ranged from 0 to 6. All remaining scales were rated from 1 to 5. For each well-being scale and ERS-ACA subscale N = 653, whereas for each MusEQ subscale N = 508. This is because the MusEQ questions were only provided to those who reported undertaking at least one music-related ACA during COVID-19.
