One factor may be how much of a task is being actively controlled by the conscious brain and how much is habit or muscle memory. I can play a guitar and sing at the same time, but a lot of it has little to do with my conscious brain. It works, but for a better result when I'm recording I usually record the guitar first and then the vocal.
That makes sense. During high-school I played games like Tetris a bit on my graphing calculator during class. The class I played games in the most was General Business. The class was mostly discussion based & I participated in the discussion the most & had the best grade out of both periods that our teacher taught.
