To better comprehend attentional focus, many studies found relationships between EEG signals and attentional focus, however more investigation on methods that facilitate its prolongation are necessary. Previous studies indicate that stimuli, such as color of ambient or background sounds can influence the cognitive state of people. Based on that, we believed that stimuli can affect attentional focus as well. Although, it has not been addressed and proper evaluation is needed. To help people sustain attentional focus longer, as the first step, this research investigates how different stimulus influence attentional focus. For that, a preliminary experiment was conducted in which participants took a cognitive test for a long pe riod while wearing an EEG sensor to induce them to lose attentional focus. During the test, different stimuli were compared. As evaluation, we conducted statistical analysis on the performance and the EEG signals during the exposition of each stimulus. The results of this stage indicated that River Sound obtained higher attentional focus than Red Light., Attentional Focus is important for many cognitive processes, as it has great influence on performance of working, studying and many other activities, although, it is difficult to sustain it for a long period.
