Interesting study. It seems to support other research saying humans can perform multiple tasks quite well *if* those tasks are related to each other or if they are similar in some way. However, we fall down pretty badly if the tasks are not related at all. And things can get confusing when people use one term -- multitasking -- to describe both situations when in reality they are very different.
