The Mozart Effect
In this assignment, you will read an article about the Mozart
effect and identify various parts of the research process. This
exercise will help you learn how to read a research article and
to understand the research process.
Read the following article:
Rauscher, F. H., Shaw, G. L., & Ky, K. N. (1993). Music and
spatial task performance.
Nature, 36
5. 6447: 611. (October 14, 1993). (ProQuest Document ID
76004658).
In your article summary, respond to the following questions:
State the research hypothesis in your own words. Identify the
independent and dependent variables.
What were some variables the researchers controlled in their
study? Why was this necessary?
What evidence do the researchers offer as a test of their
hypothesis? Is this evidence empirical (observable)? Is it valid?
What explanation do the researchers offer for their findings?
Does the evidence justify this explanation?
Read the following article:
Jenkins, J.S. (2001).
The Mozart effect.
Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 94,
170-172.
Based on your readings, respond to the following:
Do you think there is any merit in the study (Rauscher, Shaw, &
Ky, 1993)? Give three reasons for your position.
Does the study take individual differences in spatial ability into
account? Explain your answer.
What are two ways in which the experiment could be modified
to make the results more generalizable?
Write a 5–6-page paper in Word format. Apply APA standards
to citation of sources. Use the following file naming

convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M1_A3.doc.
