 Personality and Motiv ation
Donald has recognized the complexities of individual differences, has commented about the messiness of the findings relating individual differences to performance, but none-the-less has insisted that a proper understanding of human information processing needs to take into account individual differences in personality and motivation.
Broadbent's primary observation about individual differences was that "It has been noticed many times that some individuals show larger decrements from prolonged work than others do." (Broadbent, 1958, p 140).
Broadbent's 1971 review suggested that there were common effects for some of these manipulations, but also showed that at least two levels of control processes needed to be invoked to understand all of the effects.

The settlement, negotiated by attorney Dominic Guerrini of Kline and Specter, P.C., came one year after Donald Broadbent, 60, of Germansville, an employee of Lehigh Valley Erectors, was injured while reinforcing and welding bar joists to strengthen the roof of the storage facility in Orefield, Pa.
Broadbent suffered a fractured pelvis, wrist and elbow, eight broken ribs and a collapsed lung.

A tribute to the work of Donald Broadbent, the chapter supports and furthers observations about individual differences in performance, learning, and motivation.
The authors claim a great deal has changed since Broadbent's 1958 discussion of individual differences, in terms of a theoretical understanding of these dimensions.
They advocate deriving a model to further this understanding from the neurobiological model of Jeffrey Gray, the multiple dimensional models of affect of Watson and Tellegen, and those of Thayer.

Donald Broadbent, who died in 1993, was one of this century's greatest psychologists and probably its most influential experimental psychologist.
Broadbent is rightly credited with being a major force in the development of modern cognitive psychology.
However, not only did Broadbent reply at length to my letter (these were the days of regular mail), he made some suggestions for improvement of my arguments, and encouraged me to continue the work further.

 Thinking About Thought: Consciousness, Life and Meaning
The works of Miller (1956), Broadbent (1957), Newell (1958) and Chomsky (1957), that all came out in the second half of the 1950s, established a new paradigm in Psychology, broadly referred to as "cognitivism", which was de facto a precursor to cognitive science and ended the supremacy of behaviorism.
Broadbent also stated the principle of "limited capacity" to explain how the brain can focus on one specific object out of the thousands perceived by the retina at the same time.
Broadbent's model of memory (also known as the "filter theory") reflected at least two well-known features of memory: information about stimuli is temporarily retained but it will fade unless attention is turned quickly to it; the unattended information is "filtered out" without being analyzed.

 Cognitive psychology - ExampleProblems.com
Cognitive psychology is one of the more recent additions to psychological research, having only developed as a separate area within the discipline since the late 1950s and early 1960s (though there are examples of cognitive thinking from earlier researchers).
The cognitive approach was brought to prominence by Donald Broadbent's book Perception and Communication in 1958.
Since that time, the dominant paradigm in the area has been the information processing model of cognition that Broadbent put forward.

 General Learning Concepts
Research into which sections of the perceptual process are influenced by attention culminated in Donald Broadbent's Filter Theory.
This theory proposed that a large amount of sensory information can be absorbed at once, and that a selective "filter" reduces the input for one source while the brain is processing the information from another source.
Broadbent showed that an unfocused state of mind allows some learning to take place, but that motivation or interest may be required to activate these memories.

Working memory refers to the automatic, temporary persistence of sensory and semantic information recently activated in the brain, and also to the inclusion of a subset of the activated information in the focus of attention.
Donald Broadbent, a pioneer in the field, asked me to write a book expanding this view (1995, Oxford University Press, Attention and memory: An integrated framework).
In addition to discussing memory, I offered hypotheses of how information enters the focus of attention, and of the relation between memory activation and attention.

The tradition initiated by Broadbent emphasizes the distinction between cognitive problem solving processes that operate under awareness versus outside of awareness, and typically employs mathematically well-defined computerized systems.
The tradition initiated by Dörner, on the other hand, is interested in the interplay of the cognitive, motivational, and social components of problem solving, and utilizes very complex computerized scenarios that contain up to 2,000 highly interconnected variables.
Berry and Broadbent (Chapter 5) deal with dissociations between what people can actually do and what they can verbalize about their actions, and argue that different types of knowledge may be independently acquired and used during complex problem solving.
