Thanks for this post. Does it matter whether the music has singing? I would think that wordless music (and not Muzak where the listener knows the words and would fill them in) would be less distracting than music with singing (at least in a language that the listener understands). Is there a decline in performance even with purely instrumental music?
I CANNOT listen to music while working. But I also have a lot of working memory problems. I wonder if this differently affects individuals: for those with more working memory to spare, perhaps the energy boost can outweigh the distraction?
I’m in college and listening to something while the teacher/dr. Is explaining makes me focus more and removes boredom but almost all the teachers have strict rules and I can’t do what will make me A BETTER STUDENT but it seems they just like to stick to their own stupid rules that doesn’t help anybody i thought we are not in school anymore but they treat us like children. i hope this doesn’t happen in the work place too which is what im afraid of.
@@RandomGuy-hv7tb he will have to be methodic to try this. For example, Study something without music, try answer questions with and withou music and see the results. But the are lot of others factors that can get in the way: did he sleep well last night? The questions where the same dificult? and so on...
My boss makes a dollar while i make a dime, thats why i listen to music on company time
