- Abstract:
The article offers information on the changes within the brain during a boring task. Daniel Weissman of the University of Michigan, has reported that lapses in attention during a boring task may be possibly due to disconnections between certain regions of brain. He says that attention works as a communication amplifier and focuses on connections between certain regions at certain times. When the focus is switched to new connections, existing connections weaken and attention lapses.
