Multitasking neither makes you smarter or drain the brain. The ability to do more than one thing at a time is not connected to IQ. Women are better at it than men because they can use both right and left hemispheres of the brain at the same time. This maybe due to that they need to do many things at once while caring for a child. A brain is also is not a battery that is "drained". Instead the more you use your brain the more synapse are developed/created.
Multitasking is actually a myth. Our brains are wired to pay attention to one task. It has been this way so we can watch and "take care" of dangerous situations. A good example of this is slight of hand tricks. Just watch one to see.
Quote from: Professor John Duncan, a behavioral neuroscientist at Cambridge University:
"There were experiments in the 50s when subjects were played two speech messages at the same time, and were asked to concentrate on one," he says. "It's quite amazing how little they took in from the other one."
Amazing, but as it turns out, quite logical. "The brain has very specialized modules for different tasks, like language processing and spatial recognition. It stands to reason that two similar tasks are much harder to do simultaneously, because they're using similar bits of tissue."
Neuropsychologist Professor Keith Laws says genuine high-level multitasking is impossible in humans.
"The general understanding people have of multitasking is a bit of a misnomer. I've never seen any examples of anyone who can do three or even two intelligent tasks simultaneously," says Prof Laws.
