Everything about Directed Attention Fatigue totally explained
Directed attention fatigue (
DAF) is a neurological symptom which occurs when the inhibitory attention system, that part of the
brain which allows us to concentrate in the face of distractions, becomes fatigued.
Signs of directed attention fatigue include temporarily feeling unusually distractible, impatient, forgetful, or cranky when there's no associated
illness. In more severe forms, it can lead to bad judgment, apathy, or accidents, and can contribute to increased stress levels. DAF is caused by concentrating too much in the midst of external or internal distractions. Inhibitory attention
chemicals are replenished during
sleep, so lack of sleep can increase the likelihood of directed attention fatigue.
