Survey: Women Better at Multitasking

An online survey carried out by Nokia last month says that women are better at multitasking than men, although a closer look at the figures shows that the women just think they’re better:

Only six percent of women believe that men are better at doing more than one thing at a time.

Inevitably, the talk turns to telephones, and Nokia claims that 74% of people believe that a cellphone makes them better at multitasking. For instance, 50% of women put on makeup while on the phone.

LONDON: Women have always cribbed that men are incapable of doing more than one thing at once. Now, a study has confirmed that men really are worse at multitasking than the fair sex, though it does depend on the task.

Psychologists have carried out the study and found that when both women and men work on a number of simple tasks -- such as searching for a key or doing easy maths problems -- at the same time, women are much much better at multitasking.

In fact, according to them, females are better able to reflect upon a problem, while continuing to juggle their other commitments, than men, 'The Daily Telegraph' reported.

There is no doubt in it that we WOMEN are best in every work that are assigned to us..be it managing household work, office work, handling kids-husband, food and many more things..

MEN can't do these all works at a same time...They ask for a BREAK..lol.

Most of the women have witnessed their MEN's way of working style and thus i am sure about the SURVEY which is absolutely right....;)))
