这项观察性研究描述了注意力和注意力分散的早期发展。在不同的干扰条件下，172名10个月、26个月和42个月大的孩子玩玩具。对玩具的关注被编码为随意、固定或集中。三种注意水平均随年龄变化，随性注意减少，集中注意增加。10个月大的孩子比其他孩子更容易分心，即使在集中注意力时也是如此。婴儿最容易被视听干扰物分散注意力，而年龄最大的孩子最容易被视觉干扰物分散注意力。一些42个月大的婴儿在有干扰物的情况下更能集中注意力。总的来说，研究结果指出了游戏过程中潜在注意力的发展转变。
This observational study describes the early development of attention and distractibility. Under several conditions of distraction, 172 children at 10, 26, and 42 months of age played with toys. Attention to the toys was coded as casual, settled, or focused. All 3 levels of attention changed with age, with casual attention decreasing and focused attention increasing. The 10-month-olds were more disttactible than the other children, even during focused attention. The infants were most distracted by the auditory-visual distractor, whereas the oldest children were most distracted by the visual distractor. Some 42-month-olds showed evidence of being more focused in the presence of distractors. Overall, the results point to a developmental transition in the processes underlying attention during play.
