The Effects of Music on Performance in Human Hand-Eye Coordination
Ethan Zhou · Scholarly review . · 2024
In this paper, the effect of music on hand-eye coordination is studied. The intricacies of the complex system that enables hand-eye coordination is discussed, the possible effects of music analyzed, and an original experiment was conducted. In the experiment, participants listened to multiple genres of music while completing a task requiring hand-eye coordination and recording four statistics per trial per task. There were limitations to the experimentation that may have resulted in inconclusive data, but the available data was still analyzed for any possible results. After processing the data, the results indicated that music did not have a significant impact on the participant’s hand-eye coordination for the overall group, but individually, certain participants did significantly perform better with select genres.
