Abstract The project's purpose was to efficiently accumulate an answer for the question, "Does multitasking affect studying accuracy?" It was to observe the effects of multitasking while studying (doing math questions), and gain knowledge about how the prefrontal cortex was affected by the usage of multitasking in place. The multitasking done was mild, so the project was aimed at minor tasks like eating, talking, etc.
