1. Attention is the cognitive process of selectively concentrating on one aspect of the environment while ignoring others. There are several types of attention including selective visual attention, overt and covert attention, focused attention, sustained attention, alternating attention, and divided attention.
2. Attention disorders like ADHD are characterized by attention problems and hyperactivity. Common symptoms include inability to pay attention, distractibility, fidgeting, and difficulty waiting. Diagnosis involves ruling out other factors and behaviors persisting over time in multiple environments.
3. Treatment options for attention disorders include behavioral management, medication, psychological therapies, and educational support. Stimulant medications are commonly used but concerns exist about overprescription.
The document discusses different aspects of attention. It defines attention as concentrating the mind on one task and withdrawing from others. There are two types of attention discussed - selective attention which involves focusing on one stimulus while ignoring others, and divided attention which involves sharing cognitive resources between two or more stimuli. Studies on selective and divided attention show that simultaneous performance across tasks is poor but improves with practice. Sustained attention refers to attending to stimuli over prolonged periods and can deteriorate due to fatigue. Automaticity develops from repetition and frees up cognitive resources.
This document discusses the key concepts of attention including its definition, characteristics, determinants, types, degrees, and alterations. Attention is defined as the process by which we orient ourselves to some stimuli and disregard others. The document outlines the main characteristics of attention such as its selective and shifting nature. It also examines the determinants that influence attention like intensity, novelty, and interest. Finally, it explores the different types of attention and factors that can impact attention levels like distraction and inattention.
This document discusses the key concepts of attention including:
- Attention is defined as the concentration of consciousness on one object rather than others.
- There are different types of attention including non-volitional (involuntary) and volitional (voluntary) attention.
- Factors that influence attention are both external (size, intensity, movement) and internal (interest, desires, motives).
- Distraction is any stimulus that interferes with attention or draws it away from the intended object. Sources of distraction can be external (noise, lighting) or internal (emotions, fatigue).
- The span of attention refers to the number of objects one can concentrate on at once, which varies
1. Attention is the concentration of awareness on some phenomenon to the exclusion of other stimuli and determines consciousness. It can be voluntary, requiring conscious effort, or involuntary, arising without effort.
2. Factors that influence attention include the nature, intensity, size, contrast, location, repetition, motion, and form of stimuli as well as an individual's interests, motives, mental set, past experiences, emotions, and habits.
3. The span of attention refers to how long stimuli can be focused on before a break is needed. Visual attention span is brief while auditory span is slightly longer, especially with rhythm. Sustained attention maintains continuous concentration on a subject.
This is a draft of a presentation meant to help students understand why concentration is important for learning philosophy and why distraction from various sources (including internet, cell phones, etc.) harm learning and meaningful experience.
This document discusses cognitive processes and attention. It defines cognition as mental processes involved in gaining knowledge and comprehension, such as thinking, knowing, remembering, judging, and problem-solving. It then focuses on defining and describing attention, which is the selective focus on a particular object or idea. The document outlines different types of attention, including involuntary and voluntary attention. It also discusses characteristics of attention like being selective and shifting focus. Determinants of attention, uses of attention, and challenges like distraction are also summarized.
Introduction to Sensation, Perception and AttentionD Dutta Roy
The document provides an introduction to sensation, perception, and attention in psychology. It defines sensation as the awareness of stimuli through sensory receptors. It discusses the attributes and thresholds of sensation, as well as how the brain processes sensory information. It then defines perception as how the brain organizes and interprets sensory information. It outlines several principles of perception like figure-ground and proximity. Finally, it defines attention and the types of attention, and discusses signs of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
Attention is the process of concentrating on a particular object or activity while ignoring other things. It involves focusing one's consciousness. The span of attention refers to how long someone can concentrate on an object before becoming distracted. Several factors can influence attention, including both external factors like size, movement, and intensity as well as internal factors like interests, desires, habits, and past experiences. Distraction occurs when something interferes with one's attention and draws it away from the original object. Common sources of distraction include external noises and stimuli as well as internal states like emotions, fatigue, and lack of motivation.
This document discusses attention and perception. It defines attention as the process of selecting stimuli from the environment based on interest and attitude. There are two types of attention: voluntary/involuntary. Voluntary attention involves conscious effort while involuntary is not under conscious control. Some factors that influence attention are stimulus characteristics like intensity, size, and movement as well as individual factors like interests, attitudes, and needs. Perception is defined as interpreting sensations to experience objects and events. The document outlines factors that affect attention span and discusses distraction.
This document defines attention and discusses various aspects of attention from a psychological perspective. It defines attention as the ability to focus selectively on a stimulus, sustain that focus, and shift it at will. It discusses factors that influence attention span such as age, enjoyment, and temperament. It also outlines different types of attention including overt vs covert and voluntary vs automatic attention. The document provides an overview of theories of attention such as the spotlight and premotor theories. It discusses the neural mechanisms underlying different types of attention shifts and outlines a clinical model of attention involving focused, sustained, selective, alternating, and divided attention.
This Presentation is on the Topic of Perception types Motion Perception and Time Perception and the Topic of Attention and its kinds.This Presentation contain Real Life Examples and Its very easy to understand these Topics b these contents.
This document discusses types of attention and factors that affect attention. There are two types of non-volitional attention: enforced and spontaneous. Volitional attention can be implicit or explicit. Attention can be affected by both external factors like the nature, intensity, contrast and repetition of a stimulus, as well as internal factors such as a person's interests, motives and mental set. The document provides examples to illustrate different types of attention and influencing factors.
The document discusses signal detection theory and the four main functions of attention: signal detection, selective attention, divided attention, and search. It describes signal detection theory and the four possible outcomes of detecting or not detecting a target stimulus. It then discusses each of the four main functions of attention in more detail, including definitions, theories, and studies related to vigilance, selective attention, divided attention, and visual search. Finally, it discusses attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and its causes and symptoms.
This document provides an overview of cognitive psychology and attention. It defines cognitive psychology and discusses the role of attention, including types of attention like visual and auditory attention. Theories of selective attention are presented, including early selection, attenuation, and late selection theories. Everyday problems of attention are discussed like inattentional blindness. Clinical problems like attention deficit hyperactivity disorder are also summarized.
This document discusses various aspects of attention including definitions, characteristics, types, determinants, duration, and implications for nursing. It defines attention as the concentration of consciousness on a particular object. Attention can be selective, shifting, and creates clarity and motor adjustments. It is influenced by both external factors like stimulus intensity and internal factors like interests, emotions, and past experiences. Attention can be voluntary or involuntary and can range from implicit to explicit types. The document also addresses the span and duration of attention and causes of distraction and inattention in learning contexts.
The document discusses attention and its characteristics. It defines attention as the focus of consciousness on a particular object or idea at a time, to the exclusion of others. It describes attention as a selective mental activity that is constantly shifting. There are two main types of attention: voluntary attention, which requires conscious effort, and involuntary attention, which does not require will or effort. Some key factors that influence attention, both internally and externally, are also outlined.
Perception is our sensory experience of the external world through recognizing stimuli and responding to it. It serves as an encoding process where we take in sensory information and interpret it, like seeing a building and labeling it as a "house". Perception is a concept studied in cognitive psychology relating to how we actively process information from our environment.

Here are some key characteristics of bad listeners:
- They don't fully concentrate on the speaker and allow their mind to wander.
- They frequently interrupt the speaker and don't allow them to fully express themselves.
- They are too focused on analyzing and critiquing what is said through their own logical lens rather than understanding the underlying emotions.
- They hijack the conversation to steer it towards themselves by relating personal stories.
- Their goal is to rebut and argue against the speaker rather than understand their perspective.
- They are too quick to give advice without letting the speaker fully articulate or find their own solutions.
The most effective listeners remain fully engaged, don't interrupt, seek to understand the
