Question

compare and contrast selective and divided attention. what does the evidence show about how each of these effect task at work, school, or home

Answer 1

Selective attention-- It is related to the selection and processing of the desired information in a specific way with a directional stimulus.

• unnecessary information is left behind.
• single unidirectional desired stimulus.
• specific transfer of information.
• prefrontal region, posterior cortex and premotor cortical areas are less stimulated in the selective attention.
• The angle and color dimension of the three concentric ring of the colors was analyzed in the selected circular frame.
• left superior parietal region of the brain was involved in the testing of the stimulus with the movement of the stimulus to the right side of the brain.
• task map analysis was done by ANOVA software to check the angle and orientation of the color regions and concentric rings in the bran for a single taks and multiple stimulus and tasks.
• Divided attention- It is the transfer of multiple stimulus in the various regions of the brain.
• The regions were more activated due to more stimulations than that due to a single stimulus.
• more optimal allocation of stimulus inside the brain regions with more space.
• more additional processing due to more tasks.
• it is more in the left cerebral hemisphere cluster as compared to the right hemisphere cluster.
• more cognitive imaging and response.
• more cumulative and summation of the signals of the neuronal response in the brain.
