Recent years have seen a rise in interdisciplinary approaches to
the study of the mind. However, relatively little emphasis has been
placed on attention, its functions, and phenomenology. As a result,
there are a multitude of definitions and explanatory frameworks
that describe what attention is, what it does, and how it works.
This volume proposes that one way to discuss attention is by
utilizing an integrative multidisciplinary framework that takes
into consideration aspects of attention as a means of accessing the
world and as a mediator of experience. It brings together
contributions from cognitive science, philosophy, and psychology in
order to shed light on these aspects of attention. By including
both theoretical and empirical approaches to attention, this volume
will provide (1) an innovative framework for examining attention as
something that mediates experience and (2) new perspectives on
foundational and defi nitional issues of what attention is and how
it contributes to our ability to access the world. By drawing
together different disciplines, this volume broadens the concept of
attention. It opens up a new way of looking at attention as an
active process through which the world is disclosed for us.
