The mechanisms of attention achieve psycho-behavioral regulation based on the orientation, focus and selection of different types of activities. The development of the instructive-educational process involves more complex learning activities, requiring the student an intellectual effort and a much greater physical endurance. At this stage, attention is appreciated as a factor of school success, and its absence - as a factor generating failures. Therefore, every cognitive process in the assimilation and processing of information from the internal and external environment would not be possible without the intense participation of attention, which is a psychic function indispensable to the whole process of knowledge.
