Okay.
So they get habituated to that.
And that's part of your training.
And then you're, you know, that's called also pre-deployment training.
And then you're deployed to a war zone, let's say.
Okay.
My hunch was that that training in and of itself may actually deplete attention.
So I asked if we could partner with military service members at the beginning of pre-deployment training.
And then again, test them in terms of their attention, come back four to eight weeks later, test them again, and let me see how their attention looks.
And what did you discover?
That I was right.
Unfortunately, I was right.
What we found was that while their attention looked pretty good at the outset, after four to eight weeks of ongoing demands, their attention started to slip and they were significantly worse in their performance.
And getting away from military service members, when we talk about...
Other groups, undergraduates, for example, going through the academic semester, same thing.
From the beginning to the end of the semester, attention is worse.
And think about that.
Now they've got to take final exams.
Preseason training for athletes, same idea.
From the beginning to end of preseason training, attention is worse.
