Effects Of Multitasking
Multitasking is when a person deals with more than one task in the same time period. Researcher Dr. Travis Bradberry has been through many points in his article, Why Smart People Don’t Multitask, of the major effects multitasking has on the brain over time. Dr. Travis explains how people who multitask in their daily lives have shown a decline in their IQ compared to people who completed tasks one by one. While also explaining that the cognitive impairment for multitasking had lasting effects. There were many experiments developed in order to determine the results that the article pointed out with sources of higher degree, allowing myself, in addition to other readings to determine our view on the matter. These sources from Stanford, University
of London, including other universities made me pleased with the article itself. Also, the points brought up were well demonstrated with trails as well as the effects of different fragments of the brain that were affected. “Talent Smart has tested more than a million people and found that 90% of top performers have high EQs. If multitasking does in fact damage the anterior cingulate cortex will lower your EQ”. Although, the article itself included the word “if” multiple times implying the unknown aspect of the exposé. Otherwise, the article has strong points that allow me to trust and respect the writer and his view.
