PAYING ATTENTION &
THE ILLUSION OF MULTITASKING
HAVE YOU EVER
MISSED YOUR
FREEWAY EXIT
BECAUSE YOU
WERE TALKING
ON YOUR PHONE?
THAT’S BECAUSE
CONCENTRATION
HAS A PRICE…
OUR BRAINS
CANNOT
MULTITASK -
WE’RE BUILT TO
TACKLE ONE
TASK AT A TIME.
WHEN WE THINK WE’RE
MULTITASKING, WE’RE JUST
RAPIDLY BOUNCING
BETWEEN TASKS,
EVERY TIME WE BOUNCE
WE PAY A PRICE - ½ A SECOND
OF DELAY CALLED AN
ATTENTIONAL BLINK
0.5 seconds
doesn’t sound like a lot
...unless you’re going 120kph - Then it’s enough time
for you to plow through the full length of a school bus,
before your brain even knows it happened
TO OPTIMIZE YOUR WORKFLOW IT’S
BEST TO MAINTAIN FOCUS ON
ONE TASK AT A TIME
That way you avoid attentional blinks
and can enter a state of “FLOW”,
where performing an activity
provides a feeling of energized focus,
full involvement, and enjoyment in
the process.
For website and app
design the
implications are
simple: Whenever you
need users to
complete a task (e.g. fill a
form, complete a purchase, etc.)
it’s best to minimize
elements that might
distract them from
what they need to do
