Upbeat music may boost focus and mood; aggressive tunes could increase anxiety, study finds.
A new study released in February 2026 suggests that long-term exposure to certain music genres may influence cognitive development and emotional regulation in young adults.
Researchers from the University of Michigan analyzed data from over 10,000 participants and found correlations between consistent listening to upbeat, rhythmic music and improved focus and mood, while prolonged exposure to highly aggressive or repetitive tracks was linked to increased anxiety and reduced attention span.
The findings, though not conclusive, highlight potential long-term effects of music consumption on mental health and brain function.
