Listening to Music While Studying
Do you like listening to music when you're studying? A lot of students think that listening to their favorite songs helps them study better, especially when they are revising (复习). But does it really make them learn more? And will it be different if they choose different kinds of music?
How to research
To answer these questions, teachers from Cardiff Metropolitan University recently ran a study. They divided students into different groups:
Group A revised in silence;
Group B revised to music without words;
Group C revised to music with words they liked;
Group D revised to music with words they disliked.
The students then took a test on the passages they had been revising.
Main findings
Group A did better in the exam than the other three groups.
Group B got higher scores than Group C and Group D.
There's no difference between Group C and Group D. Both groups got lower scores than usual.
