Selective attention refers to the ability of the person to put his full attention on a single thing or event. During this time, the person is selectively attending a certain event or stimuli. Whereas, in divided attention, the person is capable of putting his concentration in two or more events or things. Therefore, the person has an ability to divide his attention in divided selection case.
