Attention; Attention Unit; Fixed Attention Units

ATTENTION, 1. when interest becomes fixed, we have attention. (COHA, p. 99) 2. a motion which must remain at an optimum effort. Attention is aberrated by becoming unfixed and sweeping at random or becoming too fixed without sweeping. (Scn 0-8, p. 75)

ATTENTION UNIT, 1. a theta energy quantity of awareness existing in the mind in varying quantity from person to person. (HCOB 11 May 65) 2. actually energy flows of small wavelengths and definite frequency. These are measurable on specifically designed oscilloscopes and meters. No special particle is involved. (Scn 8-80, p. 45)

FIXED ATTENTION UNITS, attention units which are caught somewhere down the time track in one incident or another in the form of entheta. (HCOB 11 May 65)
