PART 2 PURPOSE:My fellow peers and I are trying to find out Can music affect how well we concentrate and does the genre matter?

Assignment 1.03 Part I, Scenario 3: 1. The independent variable in the experiment is the different types of music, because there are three types of music styles that are being used.

Do you ever feel “pumped” when you hear certain kinds of music? Maybe a particular song coming over the speakers at the gym inspires you to do an extra set of repetitions, or to lift a little more weight than you thought you could. A series of experiments suggests that some music can indeed give listeners a sense of power, as indicated in power-related cognitions and behavior. The experimenters first tested 31 musical selections from a number of popular genres, to determine which might make listeners report feeling “powerful, dominant, and determined.” They then used the three highest-rated, and the three lowest-rated, selections in subsequent experiments. The first experiment was a word-completion test.
Informative Essay: Does Music Effect Teenagers By: Brandon Arnett With music being such a staple in youth culture, it seems that each teenager has a “soundtrack to their life.” But, are they just innocently listening to their favorite tunes? Or are they in for something more? In the media it seems that certain groups that are affiliated with particular genres of music, often seen with styles such as rap and hard-rock/heavy metal, are pinpointed when something within their community goes bad, as having been strongly influenced by the music they listen to. But does it truly work this way? Can the content of a song influence one’s actions and/or behavior?

People say that students can use their phones for emergencies at school but they can just make a phone call in the office. Also now days there are certain phone plans which include internet, so not only are they texting but they are now surfing the web as well! Students shouldn’t be allowed to have phones in school because it’s one of the major downfalls in their success at school. When the teacher is demonstrating a lesson to the class they’ll be busy with their phones instead. Also in most cases the students forget to turn off the volume to their cell phones which will then interrupt the class or test.
“That makes a man half whole; music is the other half which perfects a human being”. (Confucius). Although most of the discussion on art and personality focuses on literature, music also has a similar effect on personality. A reason to support the claim that music affects one’s personality is that of the experiment presented in this article. The experiment is to determine whether music can produce significant changes in the experience of one’s personality under laboratory conditions.
How has music influenced each generation, and building their own sense of reality? These questions and more are what I will be answering throughout this report. Within different time eras, music has shaped to influence each generation all very differently. Whether it is, sending messages out about WWII in the 1940s to introducing pop culture in the 1990s, music has developed and ultimately built a reality for itself. From generation to generation perception about the reality and world surrounding has altered and changed and music has been a huge
The Effect of Music on Memory Performance For hundreds of years humans have been enjoying many unique genres of music. Thousands of people purchase music records and CD’s today because it is believed to make them feel well. Today, many college students listen to music while they are studying and this has made me ponder if whether students do this for pure enjoyment or do they do this to create a better learning environment. It also made me wonder if incorporating something enjoyable into our brains will help our memory or does it just distracts us from performing to our full potential. Memory is an active system that receives information from the senses, organizes and alters it as it stores it away, and retrieves the information from the storage (Ciccarelli & Meyer, p.210).
