While I agree with the article, this paragraph is, erm, a distraction:

> Other studies suggest that people who frequently “media multitask” (like listening to music while checking email or scrolling through social media while watching a movie) are more distracted and less able to focus their attention even when they’re performing only one task

The causality could just as well run the other way: people with poor focus adherence presumnly exhibit it regardless of the amount of distraction.
