paying attention to something else
Joint attention - you draw somebody's gaz to specific
object by looking at it
Or you can not pay attention to anything in particular
"Spotlight of attention" - limited capacity for attention
- restricts how much info you can take in from region of
visual space given time
- when you attend to something, it is as if your mind
aims a spotlight onto it
- you actively ignore virtually everything else that is
happening around your spotlight, 'tunnle vision'
Magicians use this
many of the same brain circuits that control your eye
movements are involved with changing location of your
attention in the world
- eye movement circuits are responsible for orienting
your eyes to spceific araes of visual space, so it is
logical that those same circuits opereate to orient
attentional spotlight too
Magiicans control your eyes and attention - Answer>>
Our brains are flexible in what we pay attention to, both
in sensory and cognitive levels
-without this flexibility we would be unable to drive
home thinking about whats for dinner and
instantaneously swerve car to avoid child
