Study Details

In this study, we are investigating how music affects the attention span of people who have mental health diagnoses that affect their emotion and their attention. We will give each participant an attention task to complete that is paired with one of the four conditions of music clips chosen. Participants will complete the task with either a rock song playing, a fast-paced song playing, a passive song playing, or no music playing.

Participants will be adults aged 18 and older. Participants will be given an anonymous survey link to click.
