Research in the area of music distraction has been inconclusive; in contrast, studies indicate that speech distraction tends to impair certain cognitive tasks such as reading comprehension. The purpose of the current study is to clarify and to expand on previous research. Specifically, three hypotheses were proposed: (a) vocal music would affect participants' performance more than instrumental music or speech because vocal music has a higher information load; (b) native-language stimuli (vocal music and speech) would be more distracting than foreign-language stimuli (vocal music and speech) because native-language stimuli are semantically relevant; and (c) because of its high information load and semantic relevance, vocal music with native-language lyrics would have the greatest deleterious effect on participants' performance. One hundred twenty-five monolingual native English speakers (of which, 115 participants were ultimately used) from California State University's Psychology 101 and Elementary Statistics courses were administered a modified version of the Miller Analogies Test (MAT) while listening to six different auditory stimulus conditions (silence, instrumental music, vocal music with English lyrics, vocal music with Italian lyrics, sonnets in English, and sonnets in Italian). Participants took part in the experiment in small groups, and each group heard the same auditory stimuli. The experiment controlled for order effect; the auditory stimuli were played in six different condition orders. There were three response measures: number of items attempted, number of items answered correctly, and accuracy. A multivariate repeated-measure analysis of variance was conducted each performance score; there were no significant effects. Possible reasons (including limitations in the study) why there were no significant effects were discussed, and suggestions for future research were made.
