The term "Mozart Effect" was popularized in the early 1990s, claiming that listening to Mozart's compositions could temporarily enhance one's intelligence or spatial-temporal reasoning skills. However, subsequent research has shown that while music can indeed have a positive effect on mood and concentration, the specific claim that Mozart's music boosts cognitive abilities is largely a myth. The real takeaway is that engaging with music actively, whether by listening, playing, or composing, can stimulate brain function and enhance learning.
