Definición

  • Attention is a component of higher cortical cognitive functioning and refers to a person's ability to (a) detect and focus on general environmental stimuli, and (b) select important environmental stimuli. Once an important stimulus is selected, its relevant or important characteristics must be identified while irrelevant competing stimuli are ignored.
