Single-tasking

Single-tasking is the conscious focusing of attentional resources on one task or one type of processing at a time.

Definicja

In tasks requiring thinking, a person usually does not perform many processes in parallel, but switches between them. This switching has a cognitive cost: it reduces fluency, increases errors, and makes deep work more difficult. Single-tasking doesn't mean slowness, it means protecting the quality of attention.
