Basic Characteristics
- Description
The nature of attention has been studied since the 1840s. Many different conceptualizations of attention have arisen since then, with the most popular current conceptualization of attention as a model composed of three anatomically and functionally distinct networks(alerting, orienting, and executive). Cortical and subcortical networks control different aspects of attention, with subcortical networks working to modulate attention to enhance effectiveness.
