From Mozart to Metallica, tons of people enjoy listening to various types of music while they
paint, write or draw. Many people believe that music helps creativity （ 创造力 ）, but an
international study conducted by English and Swedish researchers is challenging that opinion.
Psychologists from Lancaster University, The University of Gavle, and The University of
Central Lancashire say that their findings indicate music harms creativity.
To come to their conclusions, researchers had participants （ 参与者） complete verbal insight
problems used to encourage creativity while sitting in a quiet room, and then again while music
was played in the background. They found that background music greatly harmed the participants’
ability to complete tasks related to verbal creativity.
The research team also tested background noises such as those commonly heard in a library,
but found that such noises had no effect on participants’creativity.
The tasks were simple word games. For example, participants were given three words, such
as dress, dial and flower. Then, they were asked to find a single word related to all three that could
be combined to form a common phrase or word. The single word, in this case, would be ”sun”
（sundress, sunflower, etc）.
Participants completed the tasks in either a quiet room, or while listening to three different
types of music:
unfamiliar music with unfamiliar lyrics（ 歌词）, instrumental music, or music with
familiar lyrics.
“We found strong evidence of worse performance when playing background music in

University.
Dr. McLatchie and his colleagues found that music disturbs the verbal working memory
processes of the brain, harming creativity. Also, as to the library background noises having
