作者:
Highlights:
• Opportunity to multitask interfered with memory as much as actual multitasking.
• Multitasking negatively affected low polychronics more than high polychronics.
• Recognition increased in high polychronics who had control over using Facebook.
• Low polychronics showed higher cognitive effort during voluntary multitasking.
• High polychronics showed higher cognitive effort in the nonmultitasking condition.
