23. jan 2010, ing.dk: Multitasking er svært, tidrøvende og usundt Citat: "...især dem, som gør stærk brug af mange medieformer samtidigt, lider overlast. De er dårligere til at koncentrere sig. De er dårligere til at skelne mellem relevant og ikke-relevant information. De er dårligere til at huske ting. De er endda dårligere til det, som man skulle tro de var bedre til, nemlig at skifte mellem opgaverne. Og nej, kvinder er ikke bedre til at multitaske end mænd...Videnskaben siger, at mennesker ikke kan multitaske. Vi kan måske godt pille bussemænd, mens vi venter for rødt, men det er ikke ægte multitasking. Det er en automatiseret adfærd, som ikke kræver kognitivt arbejde. Så snart det gælder om at tage beslutninger, kan der ikke være plads til andet i hjernen end netop en enkel af slagsen. Ægte opmærksomhed kan ikke være delt...", backup
March 30, 2011, psychologytoday.com: Technology: Myth of Multitasking. Is multitasking really more efficient? Citat: "...There's one problem with this scenario: there is no such thing as multitasking -- at least not the way you may think of it. The fact is that multitasking, as most people understand it, is a myth that has been promulgated by the "technological-industrial complex" to make overly scheduled and stressed-out people feel productive and efficient...Multitasking involves engaging in two tasks simultaneously. But here's the catch. It's only possible if two conditions are met: 1) at least one of the tasks is so well learned as to be automatic, meaning no focus or thought is necessary to engage in the task (e.g., walking or eating) and 2) they involve different types of brain processing. For example, you can read effectively while listening to classical music because reading comprehension and processing instrumental music engage different parts of the brain. However, your ability to retain information while reading and listening to music with lyrics declines significantly because both tasks activate the language center of the brain..."

Aalto University. (2017, April 25). Movie research results: Multitasking overloads the brain: The brain works most efficiently when it can focus on a single task for a longer period of time. ScienceDaily Citat: "...Previous research shows that multitasking, which means performing several tasks at the same time, reduces productivity by as much as 40%. Now a group of researchers specializing in brain imaging has found that changing tasks too frequently interferes with brain activity. This may explain why the end result is worse than when a person focuses on one task at a time...'It's easy to fall into the trap of multitasking. In that case, it seems like there is little real progress and this leads to a feeling of inadequacy. Concentration decreases, which causes stress.
