Exploring the use of background music in adults in order to improve memory, this study shows great steps in the same direction I want to teach. It was found that Mozart was the best music for getting more processing speed and memory out of the adults. Even though this is an older age range it is still important to the current research as it shows this music works on people of many age ranges and abilities.
