The Film Students Who Can No Longer Sit Through Films The attention-span crisis goes to the movies.

‘I heard similar observations from 20 film-studies professors around the country. They told me that over the past decade, and particularly since the pandemic, students have struggled to pay attention to feature-length films.’

“The #novelist #IrisMurdoch, whose lengthy, involved, brilliant #novels are probably the kind of thing most people don’t read any more, understood #attention better than most.” Well, I know some people who still read her. Otherwise this piece on our #attentiondeficit by #MarkKingwell is very good.

Why You Can't Focus Anymore (It's Not Just TikTok) Be honest: how many times have you checked your phone in the last hour? If you’re struggling to read this paragraph without feeling the itch to swipe away, you are already experiencing the symptoms. We used to worry that robots would take over the world by force, but it turns out, they didn't have to. We are voluntarily handing over our brains, one 15-second video at a time. In this episode, we are diagnosing the "Brain Rot" epidemic. It’s not just in your head—well, actually, it is. We are living through a massive, unintended experiment on the human mind. From the doomscrolling loops that are physically shrinking your attention span to the ultra-processed foods triggering neuroinflammation, your lifestyle is actively rewriting your neural pathways. And it gets scarier: we explore the concept of "Cognitive Offloading"—how our over-reliance on AI and ChatGPT is weakening our ability to think critically, creating a generation that is technically connected but cognitively slipping. We dive deep into the uncomfortable data suggesting a measurable regression in global intelligence. Are we outsourcing our smarts to the cloud? We break down the biological cost of sleep deprivation and how the modern diet is blocking your brain from consolidating memories. This isn't just about forgetting where you put your keys; it's about the structural erosion of your executive function. In this wake-up call of an episode, we answer: - Is social media making us dumber? How short-form content destroys attention spans and creates dopamine feedback loops. - What is Cognitive Offloading? Why relying on AI to do your thinking is causing your problem-solving skills to atrophy. - Does junk food hurt your brain? The link between ultra-processed diets, inflammation, and memory loss. - Can you repair your attention span? Practical steps to stop the regression and reclaim your focus. The world is getting faster, but our brains are slowing down. Are we witnessing the reverse evolution of the human mind? Listen in to find out if your daily habits are turning you into an NPC in your own life. 👇 Save your brain before it buffers! If you want to reclaim your focus and sharpen your mind, hit that SUBSCRIBE button. Share this episode with the friend who spends way too much time on TikTok (we all have one), and leave a 5-star review to help us beat the algorithm that’s trying to keep you distracted. Stay sharp, stay critical, and put the phone down... after you listen!

Hyposensitivity Can Look a Lot Like Misbehavior Pressmaster/Shutterstock When my son was two years old, he slipped and hit his lip on the bathtub. I initially thought he was fine, as he didn’t cry very much, and there wasn’t a lot of blood. Howe…

Adherence to Therapy Using Neurostimulation Devices in the Treatment of Pediatric Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: Extraclinical Study Background: Pediatric and adolescent patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) present unique challenges as it pertains to adherence to device-based therapies outside the clinical environment. The development, approval, and availability of neurostimulation devices for the treatment of ADHD has prompted extraclinical (outside the sphere of the clinic) research on the real-world implementation of such therapies in a population that has difficulty remembering tasks and staying attentive to therapy. Objective: This work aims to fully understand the extraclinical pediatric ADHD treatment environment, to ensure that design considerations and stakeholder contributions to forthcoming innovations will be efficacious. Methods: Using the Lean LaunchPad® methodology with its emphasis on customer discovery and the Business Model Canvas, qualitative analysis methods were applied to elicit the most pertinent themes regarding ADHD treatment in children and the general perception of a new device-based treatment regimen. Results: Stakeholders expressed a desire that for innovative ADHD therapies to appeal to children, they include a remote adherence monitoring component, and they maintain strong evidence of efficacy. Conclusions: Such barriers to access and desired design features should be strongly considered in the development of neurostimulation therapies for the pediatric ADHD patient population. Pediatric and adolescent ADHD patients require attentive device design consideration to achieve therapeutic adherence in a real-world setting. Clinical Trial: RB Study number: IRB2020-0898D IRB Title: Enhancing Therapeutic Device Adherence of Children with ADHD: An Efficacy Trial

So self-acceptance does not mean self-admiration or even self-liking at every moment of our lives, but tolerance for all our emotions, including those that make us feel uncomfortable.

ADHD sucks, but not really | Salif Mahamane | TEDxUSU YouTube video by TEDx Talks

This is an older Ted Talk, but it still speaks volumes.

As a person who suffers, I can relate. We are misunderstood. We don't conform to societal norms. Our shifting focus may even be an advantage others just don't have. We ARE worthy.

What if the Attention Crisis Is All a Distraction? From the pianoforte to the smartphone, each wave of tech has sparked fears of brain rot. But the problem isn’t our ability to focus—it’s what we’re focussing on.

Thanks. I was diagnosed with #ADHD a year ago. I'll be 74 in a few weeks. Six decades of living with #AttentionDeficit & not recognizing it or knowing why I sometimes do things so impulsively is stressful!

Please let me know if I follow one of #TrumpsChumps or missed fact-checking a story I posted.

I learned about “object permanence,” as it relates to ADD, and my world is shook. I now have a name to what I do. If I don’t see or interact with it, it doesn’t exist, and this extends to friends and family. My mind is blown. #add #adhd #attentiondeficit #mindblown
