Multitaskings Suck!

Posted in: Human Psychology by admin on March 24, 2010

In an original article published on ScienceNewsDaily.com, there is evidence that multitasking makes you worse at everything at the same time. The article was titled ‘Divided Attention: In an age of classroom multitasking, scholars probe the nature of learning and memory‘.

Here’s one of the interesting parts:

“Heavy multitaskers are often extremely confident in their abilities,” says Clifford I. Nass, a professor of psychology at Stanford University. “But there’s evidence that those people are actually worse at multitasking than most people.”

Hilarious right?! You probably know ‘that guy’ in your office, huh?

Original article here in case you ARE that guy and don’t know it.
