Does listening to music while you work help or distract you?
According to a study done by Popular Science, it depends.
In their research, people who listened to no music or simple music (defined as having few instruments and little melody change) got the job done well on easy tasks.
People who listened to complex music (more instruments, more changes) performed easier tasks even better.
[So, if you’re just ticking off your list of tasks, each day, you’re doing the right thing, by letting 98.3 WCCQ help you out!]
When it came to harder activities, people who listened to music performed worse than those who listened to nothing at all.
