The study of attention

Attention is the process of focusing on one thing, while ignoring other things. The study of attention as it relates to the learning and performance of motor skills involves issues related to the simultaneous performance of multiple activities and the selection of relevant information in the performance environment. This is because an individual must be able to monitor their own actions, including body position, movement speed, and accuracy, while also monitoring other aspects of the environment that may affect their movement or performance.
