Attention can be captured by uncertainty, interpersonal tension, or anticipated disruption, leaving fewer cognitive resources available for encoding, maintaining intentions, and retrieving information.
The human mind possesses an extraordinary capacity for adaptation, enabling individuals to modify their thoughts, emotions, and behaviours in response to changing internal and external demands. This adaptive ability, known as cognitive flexibility, is increasingly recognised as a fundamental component of psychological resilience and emotional well-being.

This influence is not uniform and should not be understood as a direct or deterministic effect.
