They were healthy and had no problem with their bodies like eyes or ears The test was simple word games. For example, volunteers were given three words, such as dress, shine and flower. Then they were asked to find a word that could let others think of the three words in some conditions. For example, the word, in the example above, may be "sun" (sundress, sunshine and sunflower) Volunteers completed the tests in either a quiet room or with the background music playing foreigr lyrics, English lyrics and instrumental music with no lyrics at all The rescarch team also tested thc library background noises, but found that such noiscs made no difference to people's crcativity, The study's authors believed that was because the library noise was a “steady (平稳的)" environment which was not as loud as music with or without lyrics.
