TikTok has become a very popular app, especially during the lockdown. It's a platform where
people can share short videos that are usually 15-60 seconds long. There are different trends and
hashtags that you can explore to find new videos. TikTok has a feature called the For You Page
(FYP) that shows you videos based on your interests.
Many people have noticed that after spending time on TikTok, they find it harder to pay attention
to longer videos or content. This could be because TikTok offers a continuous stream of quick
and exciting videos that grab our attention. A study from the Technical University of Denmark
found that our collective attention span may be getting shorter due to the ongoing flow of
information.
Attention span refers to the amount of time a person can focus and concentrate on something
without getting easily distracted. TikTok's dynamic nature and the variety of content it offers can
make us require quick and new information. Some people have even started listening to videos at
double speed or losing interest in longer videos. TikTok's unique algorithm calculates our tastes
and shows us videos that we are likely to enjoy. This constant need for new and fast content has
made us more impatient when it comes to watching other types of videos.
TikTok has created a culture of short and entertaining content, and users expect quick
entertainment. Some popular trends on TikTok include short storytime videos and travel vlogs.
These videos provide quick and entertaining overviews without requiring much attention. While
there isn't specific scientific evidence, many studies, articles, and opinions suggest that TikTok
may be the reason of poor attention spans.
