The study also found that 81 per cent completed their fastest work when music was played.

　　And it matters what type of music you listen to.For instance，if you’re doing your tax returns，then classical music is the most effective as it improves maths skills.

　　Listening to Jessie J or Justin Bieber could also improve your speed，with 58 per cent of participants completing data entry tasks faster while listening to pop songs.

　　During proof­reading，dance music，such as David Guetta，had the biggest positive impact with participants increasing their speed by 20 per cent compared to tests undertaken with no music at all.

　　Dance music also had a positive effect on spell­checking with a 75 per cent pass rate compared to 68 per cent when no music was played at all.

　　The research，undertaken by Brighton­based Mindlab International，suggests that silent offices may be the least productive.

　　“The music experiment showed that when listening to music，nine out of 10 people performed better，” said Dr.David Lewis，Chairman of Mindlab International.

　　“Proper music enables people to quickly process and keep information，regulate their behaviors，make good choices，solve problems，plan and adjust to changing mental demands，” a senior investigator of Mindlab International explains.

　　“While many schools are cutting music programs and spending more and more time on test preparation，our findings suggest that musical training may actually help to set up children for a better academic future，” added Dr.David Lewis.
