Course Information
Attention is the ability to focus and maintain interest in a given task or idea while avoiding distractions. The definitions of attention are varied depending on the field from which the definition is taken. All share the central theme of attention involving the concentration of thinking on a single object or thought to the exclusion of other thoughts. Selective attention is process in which inputs are sampled and given a priority. Detailed processing can only process one complex task. If there are too many elements on the attention then information will be lost for example more than three items communicated on an ATC clearance. Divided attention refers to situations when an individual must conduct multiple tasks at the same time, causing the tasks to compete for limited attention resources. This situation is often referred to as multitasking. Courses are constantly monitored and updated when major changes in authority documentation is released.
