这个项目的目的是调查前5年集中注意力的维持情况。在研究1中，67名儿童在1岁、2岁和3.5岁时自由玩耍，玩一些适合年龄的玩具。集中注意力的持续时间随着年龄的增长而显著增加。在1岁时，儿童的集中注意力在会议期间出现下降;然而，在2岁以上的年龄，集中注意力既没有减少也没有增加。在研究2中，2.5岁，3.5岁和4.5岁的儿童也被视为自由玩耍。结果重复了随着年龄的增长集中注意力的显着增加和会议内缺乏变化。年龄较大的儿童比年龄较小的儿童更关注建筑和解决问题，并表现出较少的注意力不集中的身体运动远离玩具。因此，在集中注意力方面观察到的发展，可能与儿童活动的多样性和复杂性的增加以及抑制控制的增加有关。
The purpose of this project was to investigate the maintenance of focused attention in the first 5 years. In Study 1, 67 children were seen at 1, 2, and 3.5 years of age in free play with a number of age-appropriate toys. The duration of focused attention increased significantly over the ages studied. At 1 year, the children''s focused attention showed a decline within the session; at the 2 older ages, however, focused attention neither decreased nor increased. In Study 2, children at 2.5, 3.5, and 4.5 years were also seen in free play. The results replicated the significant increase in focused attention over age and the lack of change within the session. Older children focused attention significantly more on construction and problem solving than did younger children, and manifested less inattention by physical movement away from the toys. The observed development in focused attention therefore, is probably related both to the increased variety and complexity of the child''s activities and to increasing inhibitory control.
