Definitions:

Selective Attention

The process by which a person focuses on one input or task while ignoring other stimuli or information that is also present.

Neural Fatigue

A temporary reduction in the ability of neurons to generate responses, often due to prolonged activity or stimulation.

Amplitude

The maximum extent of a vibration or oscillation, measured from the position of equilibrium.

Frequency

The rate at which a cyclic or periodic event occurs, typically measured in cycles per unit time.
