Divided attention selectively impairs memory for self-relevant information.
Information that is relevant to oneself tends to be remembered more than information that relates to other people, but the role of attention in eliciting this "self-reference effect" is unclear. In the present study, we assessed the importance of attention in self-referential encoding using an ownership paradigm, which required participants to encode items under conditions of imagined ownership...
متن کاملSelectively Distracted: Divided Attention and Memory for Important Information.
Distractions and multitasking are generally detrimental to learning and memory. Nevertheless, people often study while listening to music, sitting in noisy coffee shops, or intermittently checking their e-mail. The current experiments examined how distractions and divided attention influence one's ability to selectively remember valuable information. Participants studied lists of words that ran...
متن کاملDivided attention impairs human motor adaptation but not feedback control.
When humans experience externally induced errors in a movement, the motor system's feedback control compensates for those errors within the movement. The motor system's predictive control then uses information about those errors to inform future movements. The role of attention in these two distinct motor processes is unclear. Previous experiments have revealed a role for attention in motor lea...
متن کاملEffects of Divided Attention on fMRI Correlates of Memory Encoding
Performing a secondary task concurrently with a study task has a detrimental effect on later memory for studied items. To investigate the mechanisms underlying this effect, the processing resources available for an incidental encoding task were varied by manipulating secondary task difficulty. fMRI data were acquired as volunteers (n = 16) made animacy decisions to visually presented study word...
متن کاملDivided attention in music
Two models have been advanced to account for the apparent ease with which attention can be divided in music: a `̀ divided attention’ ’ model postulates that listeners effectively manage to follow two or more melodic lines played simultaneously. According to a `̀ ® gure-ground model,’’ the harmonic coherence of Western polyphonies allows a listener to focus on one melody while staying aware of the...
