東京大学の研究チームは、音楽演奏時の不安(演奏中の緊張・あがり)を評価するための国際的尺度「Kenny Music Performance Anxiety Inventory Revised(K-MPAI-R)」の日本語版を作成し、その信頼性と妥当性を検証した。400名の日本人音楽家の回答をもとに分析し、質問紙の高い信頼性(α=0.93)と、既存尺度との相関性を確認。日本語版の導入により、国内の音楽演奏不安の実態解明や国際比較が可能となり、今後の音楽教育やメンタルヘルス支援にも寄与することが期待される。

The Japanese version of the Kenny Music Performance Anxiety Inventory-Revised (K-MPAI-R) has been developed but not yet been validated. This study aims to validate and certify the Japanese version of the K-MPAI-R. Data were collected from 400 participants (250 men, 149 women, and one identifying as other), aged between 18 and 64 years (M = 46.84, SD = 10.45). The sample included 200 professional and 200 amateur musicians, comprising 309 instrumentalists and 91 vocalists. An exploratory factor analysis with promax rotation extracted seven factors that explained 55.8% of the total variance, demonstrating a structure similar to the original version. The scale showed high internal consistency, with a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.93. Criterion-related validity was supported by correlations with the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (r = 0.67) and Performance Anxiety Questionnaire (r = 0.75). These findings indicate that the Japanese version of the K-MPAI-R is a reliable and valid measure of music performance anxiety. This validated instrument enables further investigations into music performance anxiety among Japanese musicians.
