A study found that employees who take a 15-minute walk during their lunch break report significantly higher levels of afternoon focus. Therefore, the company should encourage walking to increase overall office productivity.

Which of the following is an assumption required by the argument?

  1. Employees will not spend more than the allotted 15 minutes on their walks.
  2. Increased afternoon focus among employees leads to an increase in actual work productivity.
  3. Employees who already feel highly focused in the afternoon are unlikely to take a lunchtime walk.
  4. Most employees currently spend their entire lunch break sitting at their desks.
  5. Walking is the most effective form of exercise for improving mental clarity in the workplace.
