As only a small fraction of the machinery can be engaged concurrently, energy resources must be allocated flexibly according to task demand. Given that the amount of overall energy consumption available to the brain is constant, the average discharge rate in active neurons will determine the number of neurons that can be active at any time. The bioenergetic limitations provide a neurophysiological basis for the idea that selective attention arises from the brain’s limited capacity to process information (Lennie, 2003).
