Abstract

Research studies have suggested that increasing dopamine in a natural way by listening to a short piece of enjoyable music has the potential to improve human performance. However, there is not enough empirical evidence whether listening music before studying instructional material enhances learning. Considering this need, the goal of this study is to investigate the effect of listening enjoyable music before study on learning outcomes. A total of 80 students participated in this experimental study having a between-subjects design. Half of the participants were randomly assigned to the experimental group in which they listened enjoyable music whereas the other half were assigned to the control group in which they listened no music. Afterwards, all the participants studied the instructional materials. The results demonstrate that learning gains were higher in the experimental group than in the control group. Particularly, the results of the current study suggest that when people listen to enjoyable music before they study the instructional materials, they learn better.

Özet

Araştırma çalışmaları, eğlenceli kısa bir müzik parçasını dinleyerek doğal yolla dopamini artırmanın insan performansını geliştirme potansiyeline sahip olduğunu iddia etmektedir. Buna rağmen, öğretimsel materyalleri çalışmadan önce dinlenilen müziğin öğrenmeyi iyileştirip iyileştirmediği gösteren yeterince deneysel kanıt yoktur. Bu ihtiyaç dikkate alındığında, bu çalışmanın amacı çalışmadan önce dinlenilen eğlenceli müziğin öğrenme çıktılarına olan etkisini araştırmaktır. Denekler-arası desene sahip olan bu deneysel çalışmaya toplam 80 öğrenci katılmıştır. Katılımcıların yarısı seçkisiz olarak eğlenceli müziğin dinlenildiği deneysel gruba atanırken diğer yarısı herhangi bir müziğin dinlenilmediği kontrol grubuna atanmışlardır. Daha sonra tüm denekler öğretimsel materyalleri çalışmışlardır. Sonuçlar, deneysel gruptaki öğrenme kazanımlarının kontrol grubundan yüksek olduğunu göstermektedir. Özellikle, bu mevcut çalışmanın sonuçları insanların öğretimsel materyalleri çalışmadan önce eğlenceli müzik dinlediklerinde daha iyi öğrendiklerini ortaya koymaktadır.
