      This website is extremley useful for my partner and I because it explains the consequences of peer pressure, which is our research subject. It is based on numerous, very credible researches such as the Zill research. It also explains the role that the parents have in preventing peer pressure as well as the factors that influence our generation to be much more pressured than the previous generation. Lastly, it explains that peer pressure does not only come from peers, but also from the parents' role and the role of media.

  • Loud music with words can often be more distracting than beneficial if you are trying to study.

  • However, you may be able to tune out the lyrics of a song, get into the rhythm of the music and study more effectively while songs you like are playing.
  • While classical music has proven in studies to be good for the thought process, even it can be distracting for some people. Trial and error is the only way to know how distracting music will be for you.
