Does listening to music while performing mental tasks improve or worsen your ability to focus on the task?
I think it depends on the music and the task.
@MotherDucker Instrumental music, or if lyrics, in a language I don't know, is sort of fine, depending. I can't abide random brass jazz, or bagpipes, or certain organ music. The more simple or harmonic, the better.
Depends heavily on the music, the volume, and the tasks.
@MotherDucker I start dancing then nothing gets done 😂
@MotherDucker It depends on the task. Painting a house, waxing a car? Improves. Studying absorbing dense content? Worsens.
