Researcher of the Month: Dr Éadaoin Slattery - Do Sustained Attention Training Interventions Really Work?

Researcher of the Month, Dr Éadaoin Slattery, discusses her
recent paper, which systematically reviews the evidence around
popular sustained attention training interventions, which are
widely used in schools. She talks us through what sustained
attention is, why it is important and whether or not widely used
interventions are likely to have a significant impact. We've
probably all heard of brain training, but here Dr Slattery also
talks us through some other kinds of interventions, which
potentially show more promise.
