==Description==
'''Distraction''' is the diversion of [[attention]] of an [[individual]] or [[group]] from the chosen object of [[attention]] onto the [[source]] of distraction. Distraction is [[caused]] by one of the following: lack of [[ability]] to pay [[attention]]; lack of interest in the object of attention; greater interest in something other than the object of attention; or the great [[intensity]], novelty or attractiveness of something other than the object of attention. Distractions come from both external sources ([[physical]] [[stimuli]] through the five [[senses]]), or internal sources ([[thought]], [[emotion]], fantasies, physical urges). Divided attention, as in multitasking, could also be considered as distraction in situations requiring full attention on a single object (e.g. sports, [[academic]] tests, [[performance]]).
