    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attention_span

    Child focusing on playing a game on the GameCube. Attention span is the amount of time spent concentrating on a task before becoming distracted. [1] Distractibility occurs when attention is uncontrollably diverted to another activity or sensation. [2]

  3. Plateau principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plateau_Principle

    The exponential function in parentheses corresponds to the fraction of total change that has been achieved as time passes and the difference between C ss and C 0 equals the total amount of change. Finally, at steady state, the concentration is expected to equal the rate of synthesis, production or infusion divided by the first-order elimination ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_progress_kinetic...

    b) The straight portion of the graph for substrate concentration over time is indicative of a zero-order dependence on substrate for most of the reaction, but the curve at low [A] is indicative of a change to (in this case) a first-order dependence on [A].

  5. Bjerrum plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bjerrum_plot

    Example Bjerrum plot: Change in carbonate system of seawater from ocean acidification.. A Bjerrum plot (named after Niels Bjerrum), sometimes also known as a Sillén diagram (after Lars Gunnar Sillén), or a Hägg diagram (after Gunnar Hägg) [1] is a graph of the concentrations of the different species of a polyprotic acid in a solution, as a function of pH, [2] when the solution is at ...

  6. Four stages of competence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_stages_of_competence

    However, demonstrating the skill or knowledge requires concentration, and if it is broken, they lapse into incompetence. [1] Unconscious competence The individual has had so much practice with a skill that it has become "second nature" and can be performed easily. As a result, the skill can be performed while executing another task.

  7. Logic of graphs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic_of_graphs

    In the monadic second-order logic of graphs, the variables represent objects of up to four types: vertices, edges, sets of vertices, and sets of edges. There are two main variations of monadic second-order graph logic: MSO 1 in which only vertex and vertex set variables are allowed, and MSO 2 in which all four types of variables are allowed ...

  8. Second-order conditioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second-order_conditioning

    An example of second-order conditioning. In classical conditioning, second-order conditioning or higher-order conditioning is a form of learning in which a stimulus is first made meaningful or consequential for an organism through an initial step of learning, and then that stimulus is used as a basis for learning about some new stimulus.

  9. Attention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attention

    It is the selective concentration on discrete information, either subjectively or objectively. William James (1890) wrote that "Attention is the taking possession by the mind, in clear and vivid form, of one out of what seem several simultaneously possible objects or trains of thought. Focalization, concentration, of consciousness are of its ...
