Attentional Blink- What to add

Possibly edit the opening paragraph

possibly add more information into the 'research' section

ADD TO OPENING PARAGRAPH

Add sources/links to "temporal costs" and "selective attention"

DRAFT/ RANDOM THOUGHTS

Although Attentional Blink is a phenomenon in itself that can be experimented with, it can also be used in other studies and experiments as a way to measure attention in different people. For example, a study conducted by Morrison et. al 2015, used AB to measure differences in attention in people with mental disorders such as depression and social anxiety disorder. AB was an effective measurement, it was shown that people with the two disorders are less accurate in identifying targets when they are shown during the AB period.

ADD TO THEORIES/ RESEARCH

There has been a significant amount of research of attentional blink concerning how T1 and T2 are effected by different objects but there is also a significant amount of studies that suggest that it's not only effected when targets are objects, but also when the targets are faces. According to a study by Eagles S. et al 2016, faces are processed and effected in the same way that targets are, showing a lag in recognition of T2. This allows others to be able to study emotion.

ADD TO EMOTION

Emotion does play a role in how affectively someone can identify T2 but studies have also shown that not only emotion plays a role but sex can also effect identification of T2
