Studies show that technology has both improved and also impaired some aspects of the human brain and experience. In teens who were born in technological age (called digital natives according to the article), multitasking has proven to be a positive and negative thing. In teens that multitask with facebook, multiple homework assignments, and other technologically charged items, their results from the multitasking seem to be less than desirable. Although this is a negative outcome, studies have shown that teens who spend exorbent amount of time with video games have better reflexes and are able to process information more quickly than others.
