In a study likely to make school staff amazed,U.S.researchers said that chewing gum may help academic performance in teenagers rocket to a higher level.
Many US schools ban chewing gum because children often dispose of the sticky gum under chairs or tables.But a team found that students who chewed gum during math class had higher scores on a standardized math test after 14 weeks and better grades at the end of the term than students in the class who did not chew gum.
"For the first time we've been able to show in a real-life kind of situation that students did perform better when they were allowed to chew,"said Gil Leveille,a researcher."Wrigley has gotten feedback (反饋)from many of its gum customers who say chewing gum helps them stay focused."
The researchers studied four math classes or 108 students aged 13 to 16 years old from a school.About half got free Wrigley's sugar-free gum to chew during class,homework and tests.They chewed at least one stick of gum 86 percent of the time they were in math class and 36 percent of the time they were doing homework.The other half went without.After 14 weeks,the gum chewers had a three percent increase in their math scores on the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills achievement test.
Another Wrigley-funded study found that college students in a lab who were given difficult computer tasks had lower levels of the stress when they were chewing gum compared to when they were not.Leveille said he thinks chewing gum helps reduce stress so students can do their best work.While he is aware that many schools have a dim view of students'chewing gum in class,he hopes the findings may change that a bit."It's not a matter of chewing.It's a matter of gum disposal,"Leveille said,adding that that can be overcome by teaching proper disposal behaviors.
