|
Divided attention can be achieved with practice (CS): participants need to carry out two tasks simultaneously, 1. holding information about target stimuli in ___, 2. paying attention to a series of ___ stimuli and determining whether one of the target stimuli is present among these, the more tries of this experiment, the better the performances (not possible with ___ tasks) | memory, distractor, difficult | 0%
|
