Selective information, likewise, is characterized by transmitting what it contains making use of resources such as the design or images of the subject it deals with. It also uses a series of non-semantic symbols, that is, the terms that can be seen in it are not found in the context where they would normally enter or the direction towards which they are directed is not the same.
In selective perception, one of the discoveries on which selective information was based, deals with the ability of an individual to recognize situations based on the conclusions made from stimuli that were previously received. In short, the individual takes from the information what interests him, finds it fascinating or recognizes, thus becoming a great tool because it allows discarding the information whose importance is not so high, although on some occasions this can also be an error.
