During this public trust to listen to Mozart’s music can improve intelligence. But scientists argue about the matter and revealed that Mozart’s music does not enhance intelligence.

The scientists concluded after conducting research results for more than 15 years. This finding is of course to be ‘hit’ for people who believe in ‘Mozart-effect’.

Genesis ‘Mozart-effect’ was first suggested in a scientific study that was published in 1993 in the journal Science.

In the study ‘Mozart-effect’ indicates that adolescents who listened to Mozart’s Sonata for two pianos in 1781 in D major, can do good reasoning tests compared with other teens in the room was silent or quiet.

Findings ‘Mozart-effect’ was conducted by study group at the University of California with only involved 36 students.

Since then, American society began to believe the effect of playing Mozart and classical music for children, even providing free classical CDs for parents.

However, many who thought that the effect is a myth from the research. Therefore the team from the Vienna University’s Faculty of Psychology analyze all research conducted since 1993 and tried to reproduce the Mozart effect. Apparently not got a team of researchers found evidence of such phenomena Mozart effect.

“Those who listen to music whether it is Mozart or something else such as Bach, Pearl Jam, of course, will have better outcomes than those who were silent, without music,” says Jakob Pietsching, head of research, as quoted from the Telegraph.

Pietsching said almost everyone knew that the society will conduct a test or a better job if they get a stimulus or something that can be petrified as stimulation. This is what might have been trusted by the public.

“However I advise everyone to listen to Mozart, but not to improve cognitive abilities as long as is expected by the community,” said Pietsching.
