Confidence Hack #92: No evidence supports that listening to classical music as a baby makes you smarter.
A paper published in Nature in 1993 introduced the “Mozart Effect” to the masses. Psychologist Frances Rauscher performed a study involving 36 college kids. They listened to either 10 minutes of a Mozart sonata in D-major (a very relaxing track) or silence before performing several spatial reasoning tasks.
In one test (emphasis on one test), students who listened to Mozart significantly improved their performance (by about eight to nine IQ points).
The rest is history.
Word spread that listening to Mozart’s music would increase one’s IQ, and the “Mozart Effect” phenomenon was born. Literally, from birth, parents played sonatas with their babies in hopes they would gain brain power through the effect.
As the myth grew, so did a 100-plus-million-dollar industry centered around Mozart’s music for babies. But it turns out that it is a fallacy.
There is no IQ increase by listening to Mozart.
You can gain confidence today knowing that if you missed out on the Mozart tracks while sleeping in your crib, don’t worry; it didn’t affect your knowledge.
And a double gain of confidence today knowing that most ‘hot movements’ are just that. When something seems too good to be true, it usually is.
And why don’t we keep going- a triple gain of confidence today in picking up an instrument and playing it!
