Inhibition

Inhibition is the ability to inhibit impulses, reactions or information that do not serve a current purpose.

Definicja

In cognitive psychology, inhibition is part of executive functions. It allows you not to respond automatically, not to follow every distraction and not to make the first reaction just because it appears. It is important for concentration, emotion regulation, learning and decisions.

Praktyka i życie

Before you start working, identify one thing you won't do for 25 minutes, e.g., I won't check my phone. Inhibition is also trained by clear contextual prohibitions.

Częste błędne rozumienie

It is a mistake to confuse inhibition with suppression of emotions. Inhibition is about choosing a response, not pretending the impulse or emotion doesn't exist.
