10 Angelman Syndrome Symptoms
Symptom #4: Short Attention Span
Attention span is measured by the amount of concentrated time one individual can spend on one task without becoming distracted. Most experts believe that the ability to focus and sustain attention needed is crucial to achieve one’s goals. Some also believe that part of education consists of attention training especially when students are to remain focused on a specific topic for a long period of time.
The estimated length of human attention span is variable and ultimately depends on the definition of attention used. Individuals with Angelman syndrome are thought to have a short attention span.
