A number of scientists have posited level of arousal
that the amount of attentional
resources available within the central
nervous system is capable of
expanding and contracting, making
either more or less attentional
capacity available depending on a
number factors. One specific factor
that has been implicated as perhaps
the major determinant in altering the
amount of attentional resources
available in a person is
