I’ve always found that it helps, if the music is really liked, for it to be less distracting if it is in a faster (110+ bpm) range. Thank you for your thoughtful and well-researched post!
Thank you for sharing this well researched view on music in the workplace. The world has moved on since we last looked at this and it's great to understand what the latest research says. As we'd expect given the complexity of humans and the workplace, it's an actuarial "it depends" type answer, but at least we know now to some extent what is depends on!
Thanks for reading, being first to comment, and your kind words, Colin. Yeah, you're right: It is a "depends" type answer. That was a little frustrating to me, though it seems inevitable. And you've given me better perspective with your statement: "At least we know what it depends on."
