Modern people can concentrate on an average of eight seconds. This is not enough to read a few words. Scientists from Ohio University Medical Center reached this conclusion. Information is published on the official website of the organization.
If people can attract attention for 12 seconds until 2000, now only eight. In a study that holds a thousand Americans, it turned out that the main factors that reduce concentration were stress and anxiety (43%). This follows excessive use of digital devices such as sleep lack (39%) and smartphones (35%). Other reasons include boredom (31%), performance of several tasks at the same time, inadequate physical activity (21%), malnutrition or dehydration (20%) and ADHD (18%). Only one quarter (25%) of the participants do not have difficulties in concentration.
Psychiatrist Evita Singh of the University of Ohio says that complaints about stress or concentration problems of anxiety is a widespread reason and that it is necessary to work exactly this way.
A brief concentration of attention can lead to negative concentrations such as renewal of the brain, a decrease in life satisfaction, depression development or anxiety.
Recently, it was known that people started to communicate like robots because of their neural networks. Speech loses emotional coloring.
