Attention and its role in the operator's work

Abstract

A complex attentiometer investigation of the distribution, redirection, and concentration of attention during an operator's work notes the following stages: (1) General attentiveness is still not adequately expressed in the beginning; and (2) operator self-control of actions develops and gradually decreases errors in redirecting and distributing attention. A definite relationship is found between the improvement of concentration, distribution and redirection of attention and automation of sensorimotor performance. Excercises prove less effective in redirection of attention.
