問題詳情：

  Whether it is Mozart or Miley, your choice of music could determine whether you will perform well at your job. A new study suggests that listening to music in the office improves the speed and accuracy of tasks such as data entry, proof reading and problem solving. In an office-based experiment, 88 percent of participants were found to produce their most accurate work when listening to music.

The study also found that 81 percent completed their fastest work when music was played. And it matters what type of music you listen to. For instance, if you’ re doing your tax returns, then classical music is the most effective as it improves math skills.

Listening to Jessie Jor Justin Bieber could also improve your speeds with 58 percent of participants completing data entry tasks faster while listening to pop songs. During proof-reading, dance music, such as David Guetta, had the biggest positive impact with participants increasing their speed by 20 percent compared to tests undertaken with no music at all. Dance music also had a positive effect on spell-checking with a 75 percent pass rate compared to 68 percent when no music was played at all.

The research, undertaken by Brighton-based Mindlab International, suggests that silent offices may be the least productive. The Music Works experiment showed a positive correlation between music and productivity. Overall, it showed that when listening to music, nine out of ten people performed better, said Dr David Lewis, chairman of Mindlab International.
