selective attention

Explanation:

Selective attention is a brain ability that selects important information and ignores irrelevant information. The selected information will appear clearer and more intense, and is chosen according to the subject's interest and meaning most of the time unconsciously. An example of this can be seen in the question above, where Rachel was so concerned about doing poorly on her Spanish test that her brain believed that only the negative comments her teacher made about her test were relevant. Rachel's brain selected the teacher's positive comments as irrelevant and eventually ignored them. As a result Rachel focused only on the negative reviews and felt very bad for her acting.
