Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Measurement of Attention
Our study of previous views and methods regarding the measurement of attention will naturally divide into three parts. First we shall take up the theoretical discussions con cerning the nature of degrees of attention. In the second place, we shall review the general experimental methods usually employed for inducing different degrees of attention without attempt at their accurate measurement. Finally, we shall have to study the special methods and standards pro posed or actually used for measuring attention. This, in gen eral, is the programme which we have laid out for ourselves in Part I of the present study. In the second Part we shall submit experimental evidence for the possibility of an adequate measurement of attention in terms of clearness values.
