The correct answer is Selective Attention.

Selective attention refers to the psychological procedure in which an individual takes care of one or a couple of tangible information sources while disregarding alternate ones.

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Whatever the personal goals of the speaker are, for them to effectively impart their message, they have to take into account the other three factors.
