Attention and intention are linked as core components of consciousness models in the Social Neuroscience Theory of Consciousness {fact:1, fact:4}, and both function as mechanisms to resolve behavioral competition [1]. Furthermore, both concepts are analyzed together in the context of William James' stream of consciousness and quantum physics research {fact:3, fact:5}.
