Attention and Arousal

Viac o knihe

The book explores the intersection of cognitive psychology with motivational and emotional contexts, challenging the notion that cognition can be studied in isolation. It argues that cognitive psychology, while dominant, overlooks important factors influencing information processing. The author highlights the potential benefits of interdisciplinary research, drawing on the work of Donald Broadbent and others, who identified intriguing similarities in how various factors like noise, time of day, and personality traits affect performance.
