New research reveals a complex interaction between attention and learning across the lifespan. In young adults, attention guides learning. In older adults, attention declines lead to less selective learning. Counterintuitively, however, in children better attention relates to less selective learning.
新研究揭示了注意力和学习在整个生命周期中的复杂相互作用。在年轻人中,注意力引导学习。在老年人中,注意力下降导致学习的选择性降低。然而,具有反直觉的是,在儿童中,更好的注意力与学习的选择性较低有关。
