It takes 25 minutes to bring our attention back to a task after an interruption. And we interrupt ourselves more than we're interrupted by others.

She shows how much of what we think we know is wrong, including insights such as: why multitasking hurts rather than helps productivity; how social media and modern entertainment amplify our short attention spans; what drains our mental resources and how to refuel them; the four types of attention that we experience every day and how to recognize them"-- $c Provided by publisher. 541 $d 20230130. 650 $a Distraction (Psychology.) 650 $a Attention. 650 $a Information technology $x Psychological aspects. 650 7 $a Large print books. 830 $a Thorndike Press large print nonfiction. 830 $a Thorndike Press large print nonfiction series. 941 $a 4 945 $a lpt 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20231205010814.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010032104.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20230802013810.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20230420010053.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A98D2706DF4011EDB3D0558832ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
