- The document discusses a study that examined the effects of chewing gum on memory and concentration.
- 16 participants performed memory and concentration tasks both with and without chewing gum, in randomized trials.
- Results showed that participants displayed more distracted behaviors and lower memory test scores in the non-chewing gum trial compared to the chewing gum trial, where they remained focused and had higher test scores.
- This suggests a positive relationship between chewing gum and both memory and concentration. However, the authors note that the results were not statistically significant and more research is needed.
