TOPIC BLOG QUESTION:
Discuss how attention can be guided by the predictiveness principle.
Topic Blog Questions are short answer questions, being just 300 words. The choices available to you will be correspondingly narrower in scope. we are looking for a more informal writing style. This will require you to think carefully about how you express your knowledge. Imagine that you are writing for an educated layperson. As such, terms like ‘ecological validity’, for example, will be meaningless to the layperson so you will need to carefully set out a critical evaluation in a manner that is easy for the reader to understand. This will be a challenge – writing concisely, but still including relevant details, is a real skill that should not be underestimated. Due to the brevity, it is crucially important to take great care that everything you write specifically addresses the particular Topic Blog Question and that no indirectly relevant material is included. Despite the nature of these answers, we still ask you to provide in-text citations and a full reference list It is recommended that you include between two and eight unique citations (i.e., do not count repetitions) of published, scientific, peer-reviewed, primary sources (e.g., research journal articles). There is a range of recommended numbers of citations (2-8) because it very much depends upon the specific subject matter; but it’s reasonable to presume that you probably ought to have more than one citation, and that if you have more than eight citations then you may have too many. Remember not to count repeated citations! Finally, please do bear in mind that more is not necessarily better – it really does depend on the specific subject matter
