I have already linked it ( https://www.bbc.com/news/health-38896790.amp https://www.bbc.com/news/health-38896790.amp ), but attention span itself didn’t decrease, it’s not even an existing concept. Media producers just got better at maximizing our engagement with their content, and comparatively a plain old book will be boring to our brains. This thought actually did help me in that I can’t fall victim of “learned helplessness” here, just put that phone down and work on the thing you want. Focus modes are also very beneficial. Nonetheless, interesting historical fact, thanks for sharing!
