Students commonly listen to music whilst studying. However, the extent to which background music is beneficial for studying is unclear as the effect might differ among individuals, the types of study tasks, as well as the types of music being listened to. To learn more about this topic, we are now conducting a study that aims to better understand students’ music listening habits when they are engaging in study tasks, as well as their perception of how background music affects them in those moments. If you are currently an 18+ years old student (full-time or part-time) and are willing to help us with this research, please read the information below to learn more about this study, what your participation entails, and how to participate. Thank you!! (N.B. The study is divided into 2 parts and you can participate only in the first part or both.)
