Document Summary
Selective attention- attending to one thing while ignoring others. Distraction- a stimulus interfering with the processing of another stimulus. Attentional capture- a stimulus that removes your attention from another stimulus (a loud noise) In colin cherry"s experiment, the context of the unattended message cannot be processed. Early selection model was broadbent"s filter model: messages sensory memory filter detector memory. Detector processes the higher level meaning: the unattended message is dropped before higher level characteristics, such as meaning, are processed, bottleneck model , should not be conscious of attended messages" information. Problem: someone you aren"t paying attention to in a bar says your name, you hear it! If this were correct, wouldn"t your name have been filtered out: problem: dear aunt jane experiment. Shouldn"t they have just heard dear 7 jane instead of incorporating the. Intermediate selection model is the attenuator model: messages attenuator dictionary unit memory.
