“…The Attentional Control Scale (ACS; [33]) is a 20-item self-report instrument assessing an individual's ability to focus and shift attention. Participants responded to 8 positively worded statements of everyday attention (4, 5, 9, 10, 13, 14, 17, 19, e.g., it is easy for me to read or write while I'm also talking on the phone) and 12 negatively worded statements (1,2,3,6,7,8,11,12,15,16,18,20, e.g., When I am working hard on something, I still get distracted) on a 4-point scale of 1 = almost never to 4 = always. Total scores ranged from 20 to 80, with higher scores reflecting better attentional control.…”
