Inattention over time-on-task: the role of motivation in mitigating temporal increases in media multitasking

A. C. Drody, E. J. Pereira, et al.

Across two studies, researchers found that boosting motivation reduces increases in media multitasking and associated performance declines over time, with a motivated group's attention and task performance waning more slowly. Study 2 showed in-the-moment motivation drops with time-on-task but less steeply when motivation is increased. Research conducted by Allison C. Drody, Effie J. Pereira, James Danckert, and Daniel Smilek.
