A recent study conducted by scientists at the Universities of Arizona and Kansas suggests that working at a busy coffee shop may be healthier than doing so in a quiet office. The study finds -- perhaps unsurprisingly -- that loud noises at the office have a negative impact on employee well-being. But the study also suggests that complete silence is not conducive to a healthy workplace. The study was published earlier this month in the journal Nature Digital Medicine. But open office spaces also come with a common complaint from people who work in them: noise. With this latest study, Sternberg and her co-authors shed more light on employees' physiological reactions to office sound.
