Anne Treisman

Anne Marie Treisman (née Taylor; 27 February 1935 – 9 February 2018) was an English psychologist who specialised in cognitive psychology.

Arousal

Arousal is the physiological and psychological state of being awoken or of sense organs stimulated to a point of perception.

See Selective auditory attention and Arousal

Attention

Attention or focus, is the concentration of awareness on some phenomenon to the exclusion of other stimuli.

See Selective auditory attention and Attention

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterised by executive dysfunction occasioning symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, impulsivity and emotional dysregulation that are excessive and pervasive, impairing in multiple contexts, and otherwise age-inappropriate.

See Selective auditory attention and Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

Attention span

Attention span is the amount of time spent concentrating on a task before becoming distracted. Selective auditory attention and Attention span are attention.

See Selective auditory attention and Attention span

Attenuation theory

Attenuation theory, also known as Treisman's attenuation model, is a model of selective attention proposed by Anne Treisman, and can be seen as a revision of Donald Broadbent's filter model. Selective auditory attention and attenuation theory are attention.

See Selective auditory attention and Attenuation theory

Auditory processing disorder

Auditory processing disorder (APD), rarely known as King-Kopetzky syndrome or auditory disability with normal hearing (ADN), is a neurodevelopmental disorder affecting the way the brain processes sounds.

See Selective auditory attention and Auditory processing disorder

Autism

Autism, also called autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or autism spectrum condition (ASC), is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterised by symptoms of deficient reciprocal social communication and the presence of restricted, repetitive and inflexible patterns of behavior that are impairing in multiple contexts and excessive or atypical to be developmentally and socioculturally inappropriate.

See Selective auditory attention and Autism

Broadbent's filter model of attention

Broadbent's filter model is an early selection theory of attention. Selective auditory attention and Broadbent's filter model of attention are attention.

See Selective auditory attention and Broadbent's filter model of attention

Cocktail party effect

The cocktail party effect refers to a phenomenon wherein the brain focuses a person's attention on a particular stimulus, usually auditory. Selective auditory attention and cocktail party effect are attention.

See Selective auditory attention and Cocktail party effect

Cognitive inhibition

Cognitive inhibition refers to the mind's ability to tune out stimuli that are irrelevant to the task/process at hand or to the mind's current state.

See Selective auditory attention and Cognitive inhibition

Colin Cherry

Edward Colin Cherry (23 June 1914 – 23 November 1979) was a British cognitive scientist whose main contributions were in focused auditory attention, specifically the cocktail party problem regarding the capacity to follow one conversation while many other conversations are going on in a noisy room.

See Selective auditory attention and Colin Cherry

Confirmation bias

Confirmation bias (also confirmatory bias, myside bias, or congeniality bias) is the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that confirms or supports one's prior beliefs or values.

See Selective auditory attention and Confirmation bias

Deafness

Deafness has varying definitions in cultural and medical contexts.

See Selective auditory attention and Deafness

Deep learning

Deep learning is the subset of machine learning methods based on neural networks with representation learning.

See Selective auditory attention and Deep learning

Dichotic listening

Dichotic listening is a psychological test commonly used to investigate selective attention and the lateralization of brain function within the auditory system. Selective auditory attention and Dichotic listening are attention.

See Selective auditory attention and Dichotic listening

Donald Broadbent

Donald Eric (D. E.) Broadbent CBE, FRS (Birmingham, 6 May 1926 – 10 April 1993) was an influential experimental psychologist from the United Kingdom.

See Selective auditory attention and Donald Broadbent

Hearables

Hearables or smart headphones or earbuds are electronic in-ear devices designed for multiple purposes.

See Selective auditory attention and Hearables

Hearing aid

A hearing aid is a device designed to improve hearing by making sound audible to a person with hearing loss.

See Selective auditory attention and Hearing aid

Hearing loss

Hearing loss is a partial or total inability to hear.

See Selective auditory attention and Hearing loss

Highway hypnosis

Highway hypnosis, also known as white line fever, is an altered mental state in which an automobile driver can safely drive lengthy distances with no recollection of consciously having done so.

See Selective auditory attention and Highway hypnosis

Neural network (machine learning)

In machine learning, a neural network (also artificial neural network or neural net, abbreviated ANN or NN) is a model inspired by the structure and function of biological neural networks in animal brains.

See Selective auditory attention and Neural network (machine learning)

Orienting response

The orienting response (OR), also called orienting reflex, is an organism's immediate response to a change in its environment, when that change is not sudden enough to elicit the startle reflex.

See Selective auditory attention and Orienting response

Post-traumatic stress disorder

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental and behavioral disorder that develops from experiencing a traumatic event, such as sexual assault, warfare, traffic collisions, child abuse, domestic violence, or other threats on a person's life or well-being.

See Selective auditory attention and Post-traumatic stress disorder

Schizophrenia

Schizophrenia is a mental disorder characterized by reoccurring episodes of psychosis that are correlated with a general misperception of reality.

See Selective auditory attention and Schizophrenia

Selective mutism

Selective mutism (SM) is an anxiety disorder in which a person who is otherwise capable of speech becomes unable to speak when exposed to specific situations, specific places, or to specific people, one or multiple of which serving as triggers.

See Selective auditory attention and Selective mutism

Sensory overload

Sensory overload occurs when one or more of the body's senses experiences over-stimulation from the environment.

See Selective auditory attention and Sensory overload

Sensory processing disorder

Sensory processing disorder (SPD, formerly known as sensory integration dysfunction) is a condition in which multisensory input is not adequately processed in order to provide appropriate responses to the demands of the environment.

See Selective auditory attention and Sensory processing disorder

Short-term memory

Short-term memory (or "primary" or "active memory") is the capacity for holding a small amount of information in an active, readily available state for a short interval.

See Selective auditory attention and Short-term memory

Sound localization

Sound localization is a listener's ability to identify the location or origin of a detected sound in direction and distance.

See Selective auditory attention and Sound localization

World Health Organization

The World Health Organization (WHO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations responsible for international public health.
