The selective attentional process, in other words, the process of selecting one stimulus and filtering out the rest is charecterised purely as a data-driven process according to Treisman's (1965) model of attention.
The method of channelling our consciousness to relevant stimuli while choosing to ignore insignificant stimuli in the environment is known as selective attention. This is a critical process because there is a restriction to how much information can be processed at one time, and selective attention enables us to tune out irrelevant details and focus on what is important.
