What expert says about attention span?

Gloria Mark, Ph.D., is a psychologist who wrote a book called “Attention Span” and co-authored studies about attention span. The first study in 2004 showed the average attention span for screens was two and a half minutes. In 2012, the attention span was 75 seconds, and the most recent research shows 47 seconds.

These studies have shown that your attention span decreases and gets shorter and shorter. It would seem that we need to take a deeper look at why our attention spans are getting so short.
