Learning may be defined as the relatively permanent change in behaviour that occurs as a result of practice. As of growing ages we nurture ourselves according to our surrounding. The goal shows that how the stimulus (The term stimulus is anything in the environment that can be detected by the senses) of the brain works. On how the attentions are grabbed it depends upon the stimulus conditions. These are the some of the basic concept that are to be known before we enter into the topic.
These stimulus conditions may be divided into two main groups.
1. Objective Condition and
2. Subjective Condition.
These objective determinants are those which captures the attention or in which situation the peoples are in and in which way the brain identifies it.
Size: Attention depends upon the size of the stimulus objects bigger in size seek more attention than the smaller objects.
Intensity: Intensity denotes the nature of the stimulus which has more intensity seeks attention of the individual than the weaker stimulus. For example a brighter light easily attracts the individual than the dull one.
Movement or change: In our visual field moving object seeks more attention of the individuals than a non-moving object. Advertisers use this psychological factor in their advertisements.
Novelty or Striking Quality: A new or novel object or an event is more attractive than the usual one, higher the novelty it gets attention.
Repetition: Discrete stimulus has more effect than the continuous one. Stimulating the sense organs again and again produces more sensitivity than the continuous stimulation.
Duration: For an individual to be more attentive the duration of ...

Such recent theories related to vigilance decrement suggest that the reasoning behind the vigilance decrement is related to the decrease of “processing resources”. The participants in this experiment was required continuous monitor of the radar screen for a long period. In this time the continuous groups had to either make “targets or neutral stimuli discrimination” with any form of rest or any form of other activity. Considering these things in mind it is suggested that the resource section probably w...
...We also saw that memory can play an important role too, but this is not yet clearly demonstrated. Moreover some studies reveal that the congruency (vs. incongruence) of the critical stimulus can also play an important role in awareness, a phenomenon called cocktail party effect. Such phenomenon makes clear that the relevance of the stimuli plays a key role in awareness and perception. The cocktail party effect is the phenomenon of being able to focus one's auditory attention on a particular stimulus while filtering out a range of other stimuli, much the same way that one can focus on a single conversation in a noisy room and yet be able to hear if someone calls out his name or other relevant stimuli (danger words for example). Still, sometimes we fail to perceive something that is happening right in front of us. It is easy to miss something you’re not looking for.
In this world, there are many different individuals who are not only different in demographics but also different neurologically. Due to an immense amount of people it is important to first understand each individual, in order, to better understand them and to help them when it comes to certain areas such as education, the work force, and etc…. For this reason psychologists have aimed to further understand individuals through the use of psychological assessments. This paper aims to examine a particular assessment tool, the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales (Fifth Edition), which measures both intelligence and cognitive abilities (Roid, 2003). This assessment is usually administered by psychologists and the scores are most often used to determine placement in academics and services allotted to children and adolescents (despite their compatibility for adults) (Wilson & Gilmore, 2012). Furthermore before the investigation dives into the particulars of the test, such as its strengths and weakness’, it is best to first learn more about the intelligence scales general characteristics.
Though the experiment shows that attention is vital for change detection, we should consider the size/ impact of the change in the environment. If the change to an environment is small, would it result in the change being detected? Do providing little clues draw attention effectively to where the change is being made? In support of this argument, Rensink (1997) showed that even with small clues, if the clue is not directed properly then detecting change will not have an effect. A proposal of Rensink is that the absence of attention will cause visual contents to be missed. On the other hand, Simon and Levin (1998) suggest that a person could miss things happening in their environment if his or her attention is occupied by something

Attention is defined as “notice taken of someone or something; the regarding of someone or something as interesting or important”.

The human body is divided into many different parts called organs. All of the parts are controlled by an organ called the brain, which is located in the head. The brain weighs about 2. 75 pounds, and has a whitish-pink appearance. The brain is made up of many cells, and is the control centre of the body. The brain flashes messages out to all the other parts of the body.
observation, it can often allow for an understanding of individual reactions to what is happening
In the cognitive level of analysis there are three principals that can be demonstrated through research. The cognitive level of analysis focuses on the mental processes, for instance like memory, attention, thinking and language. With that information it see how we take in all our outside information and process it. The three principals consist of; social and cultural factors that affect cognitive processes, human beings are information processors and that mental representations guide behavior, and that mental processes can and should be studied scientifically by developing theories and by using a variety of research methods. These principals allow us to focus on how behavior can truly affect our cognitive levels of analysis.
Stage one is exposure. Exposure occurs when a stimulus comes within the range of someone’s sensory receptors. Consumers concentrate on some stimuli, are unaware of others, and even go out of their way to ignore some messages. Subliminal perception refers to a stimulus below the level of the consumer’s awareness. There is no virtual proof that this process has any effect on consumer behavior.
The absolute finest work someone can complete is not possible without intensity knocking on the door. It allows an individual to experience the highest realms of accomplishment, especially at the physical level. Physically, athletes are the ones to experience the true definition of intensity first hand through the way they prepare and compete. Intensity is the most tremendous physical or mental level of struggle that an individual can reach and experience while in the process of accomplishing a task. To experience absolute intensity in a daily environment is privilege due to it being earned and not given without dedication and work ethic.
