The data tell a slightly different story \u2014 providing more areas of visual privacy can mitigate some of the distractions that frustrate people at work. When organizations balance the needs of individuals with the needs of teams, the open plan can be an environment where everyone thrives.<\/p>\n<h3>The research study<\/h3>\n<p>To take a deeper look into the open-plan\u2019s effect on work performance, Steelcase WorkSpace Futures Manager, Caroline Kelly led a study measuring sustained attention \u2014 a core component of any work process, signaling engagement and focus.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-502837 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/steelcase-res.cloudinary.com\/image\/upload\/c_limit,dpr_auto,q_70,h_1024,w_1024\/v1579289334\/www.steelcase.com\/2020\/01\/17\/20-0133991.jpg\" alt=\"Man sitting on a Brody while working\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Kelly consulted with the Center for Healthy Minds (CHM) at the University of Wisconsin\u2013Madison \u2014 a global leader in scientific research on the brain and emotions. Dr. Richard Davidson, CHM\u2019s founder and director as well as author of \u201cThe Emotional Life of the Brain\u201d was intrigued with studying the relationship between the physical environment and wellbeing. Elena Patsenko, a research scientist at the center, was tasked with helping to conceptualize the study with Kelly and acted as an expert guide throughout the process.<\/p>\n<p>Almost 70 study participants completed the Sustained Attention Response Task (SART), a test widely used to measure how well people can maintain their focus amidst distractions. By completing a \u201cGo\/No-Go\u201d task\u2014which asks participants to press or not press a button, based on a specific cue \u2014 researchers can evaluate the participants\u2019 ability to focus based on their response times, error rate and time between errors.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"pull-quote pull-quote-center \"><p>When organizations balance the needs of individuals with the needs of the teams, the open plan can be an environment where everyone thrives.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Participants were studied in two open-plan settings:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A shared bench with no boundaries<\/li>\n<li>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.steelcase.com\/products\/desks\/brody\/\">Brody WorkLounge<\/a> (an individual work environment with a wrap-around screen that provides shielding)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Each participant was tested at both the bench and the Brody, limiting variables that could affect results. To simulate an authentic office setting, two participants sat diagonally across from each other at the bench and typical open office noise played in the background.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-large wp-image-502843\" src=\"https:\/\/steelcase-res.cloudinary.com\/image\/upload\/c_limit,dpr_auto,q_70,h_1024,w_1024\/v1579290679\/www.steelcase.com\/2020\/01\/17\/20-0134001.jpg\" alt=\"People working on a bench\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>The results<\/h3>\n<p>The results showed that providing visual privacy in a setting like Brody helps people concentrate significantly better than sitting in completely open areas.<\/p>\n<p>While seated in Brody, participants had significantly slower response times compared to those seated at the bench \u2014 which is actually a good thing. Slower response times indicate concentration, focus and engagement. They also made fewer errors and had less variation between their response times, indicating a consistent state of focus.<\/p>\n<p>While it may sound counterintuitive that slower response times are better, Patsenko explains why. \u201cIncreased reaction times are usually indicative of the participants slipping into automatic or mindless responding, without taking time to process or identify the stimulus.\u201d She also notes that increased reaction times are associated with higher error rates, mind wandering and distraction.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-502844 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/steelcase-res.cloudinary.com\/image\/upload\/c_limit,dpr_auto,q_70,h_1024,w_1024\/v1579290767\/www.steelcase.com\/2020\/01\/17\/20-0133993.jpg\" alt=\"Man sitting on a brody worklounge chair by steelcase\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"pull-quote pull-quote-center \"><p>Providing visual privacy in the open plan helps people concentrate significantly better than sitting in completely open areas.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Brains get tired<\/h3>\n<p>People say they struggle to focus in today\u2019s open-plan workplace and neuroscience explains why. Studies show the human prefrontal cortex, where most knowledge work takes place, is energy-hungry and very easily distracted. Humans are able to give controlled, full attention to just one thing at a time. Without options for privacy in the open plan, workers are caught in a crossfire of distractions, adding extra cognitive load on top of the work they are doing. As the ability to focus wanes and cognitive load increases, automatic decision-making rises and quality thinking suffers.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, we\u2019re a communal species and our human nature enforces a desire to be accepted and valued by our tribe, which amplifies distractions. To achieve social acceptance from our peers, we continuously monitor our behavior and appearance in front of others to make sure it\u2019s in line with cultural norms and values. Controlling one\u2019s behavior all day is distracting and takes energy, leaving workers feeling depleted after being on display during a stressful day of work.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-large wp-image-502845\" src=\"https:\/\/steelcase-res.cloudinary.com\/image\/upload\/c_limit,dpr_auto,q_70,h_1024,w_1024\/v1579290827\/www.steelcase.com\/2020\/01\/17\/20-0133992.jpg\" alt=\"People working on a brody worklounge by Steelcase\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"pull-quote pull-quote-center \"><p>We don&#8217;t need to say goodbye to the open plan or benching. We just need to equip it differently.<\/p><cite>Caroline Kelly<span>Steelcase WorkSpace Futures Manager<\/span><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Designing the Open Plan<\/h3>\n<p>When people complain about the open plan, they often talk about noise and distracting conversations. Some assume that acoustical privacy is the only solution, but, the results of the study show workers can achieve focus in the open plan without it. When in the Brody, participants were able to improve their ability to concentrate and stay engaged when given more visual and territorial privacy. By designing the open plan with a range of privacy options, workers can find the space that suits them and the task at hand best.<\/p>\n<p>Does this mean benches should go away in the office? Not so fast. Open areas provide a different set of benefits: broad vistas, high ceilings and long views provide us with different physical perspectives, which can prime our brains to make new connections and see things in new ways. The study also found that participants were significantly more creative while seated at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.steelcase.com\/products\/benching\/\">bench<\/a>. Using the Remote Associates Test, participants were given one minute to come up with an additional word that shared something in common with three others on a list. When at the bench, people generated more correct answers, indicating they could connect the words quicker in more abstract ways.<\/p>\n<p>Research suggests that having decreased focus can actually improve our ability to be more divergent and creative in problem-solving,\u201d explains Kelly. \u201cSitting at a bench with your teammates may be just the right place to tackle a problem together. Other times, when we need to focus, spaces that offer shielding or visual privacy are best.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"u-shaded u-shaded--dark article-content\">\n<h2>The Study Environment:<br \/>\nTwo Open-Plan Settings<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-502847 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/steelcase-res.cloudinary.com\/image\/upload\/c_limit,dpr_auto,q_70,h_1024,w_1024\/v1579292106\/www.steelcase.com\/2020\/01\/17\/20-0133994.jpg\" alt=\"360 Article illustration\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Focus Test <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When completing the SART, participants made significantly more mistakes responding to \u201cNo-Go\u201d prompts at the bench setting than in the Brody setting, suggesting participants working in Brody could sustain attention with greater ease.<\/p>\n<div class=\"image-pair\">\n<figure id=\"attachment_502848\" aria-labelledby=\"figcaption_attachment_502848\" class=\"wp-image wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"width: 1024px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-502848 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/steelcase-res.cloudinary.com\/image\/upload\/c_limit,dpr_auto,q_70,h_1024,w_1024\/v1579292291\/www.steelcase.com\/2020\/01\/17\/20-0133997.jpg\" alt=\"Illustration\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" \/><figcaption id=\"figcaption_attachment_502848\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>41% incorrect responses to a \u201cNo-Go\u201d prompt in Brody<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_502849\" aria-labelledby=\"figcaption_attachment_502849\" class=\"wp-image wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"width: 1024px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-502849 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/steelcase-res.cloudinary.com\/image\/upload\/c_limit,dpr_auto,q_70,h_1024,w_1024\/v1579292292\/www.steelcase.com\/2020\/01\/17\/20-0133996.jpg\" alt=\"Ilustration\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" \/><figcaption id=\"figcaption_attachment_502849\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>49% incorrect responses to a \u201cNo-Go\u201d prompt at the bench<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Creative Test<\/h3>\n<p>Participants were additionally tested on their creative aptitude in a Remote Associates Test.

This means designing spaces that balance the need for \u201cme\u201d within \u201cwe\u201d \u2014 supporting individual focused work as well as team-based collaborative work. It seems simple, yet the design challenge is often about getting the distance right between areas for focus and areas for interaction: too close and the group can distract the individual, but too far away and people don\u2019t seek out the areas they need for concentration.<\/p>\n<p>Every individual has basic needs for privacy and focus.
