Which option shows the correct strategy to prevent digital distraction in advance?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Turning off notifications and keeping the device away during study
Preventive control changes the environment before distraction occurs. Turning off nonessential notifications and placing the device away reduces cues and the opportunity to check it, making sustained attention easier. Checking every message and watching entertainment interrupt study, while merely accepting distraction does not manage it. Thus A is the planned preventive strategy.
