A procedure for increasing self-reported daydreaming

Abstract: Sought to increase coed undergraduates self‐reported daydreaming. Six‐hundred twenty‐five Ss completed the Daydreaming Frequency scale of the Imaginal Processes Inventory. Sixty low daydreamers, 30 male and 30 female were selected to participate. The 60 Ss' also completed six additional scales from the Imaginal Processes Inventory and the Verbalizer‐Visualizer Questionnaire. Ss were assigned to one of three groups: a talk about daydreaming emphasizing its adaptive qualities, and attention control or a no treat… Show more

“…Subjects who frequently reported daydreaming when randomly sampling their thoughts were likely to retrospectively report high acceptance of daydreaming (Hurlburt, 1980). In addition, providing people with positive information about daydreaming, which made them more positive towards this phenomenon, led to an increased frequency of self-reported daydreaming (Gold & Cundiff, 1980a, 1980b.…”

“…This questionnaire permitted us not only to assess the temporal orientation of SITUTs (Miles, et al, 2010;Smallwood, Nind, et al, 2009) but also their perceived functions. With regards to this latter aspect of SITUTs, we were particularly interested in contrasting future-oriented functions, which refer to planning, decision making (i.e., behavioral intention; Sheeran, 2002;Webb & Sheeran, 2006) and the re-appraisal of previous situations (i.e., counterfactual thinking; Barbey, Krueger, & Grafman, 2009;Epstude & Roese, 2008;Smallman & Roese, 2009), with other functions that have also been attributed to SITUTs (e.g, maintaining arousal or providing pleasant feelings; for reviews, see Antrobus, et al, 1970;Gold & Cundiff, 1980;Klinger, 1999). We expected that future-oriented SITUTs (either temporally or functionally) would be more frequent than other kinds of SITUTs, showing a "prospective bias" (Smallwood, Nind, et al, 2009).…”

“…In spite of their negative impact on current task performance, SITUTs may nevertheless serve a variety of useful functions. Daydreams and mind-wandering episodes have notably been supposed to be involved in the maintenance of an ongoing sense of identity, in emotion regulation, creative thinking, self-entertainment during boring activities, or maintaining arousal in situations of poor environmental stimulation (for reviews, see Antrobus, et al, 1970;Gold & Cundiff, 1980;Klinger, 1999). Furthermore, several authors have emphasized the potential importance of SITUTs in problem solving and planning for the future (Bar, 2007(Bar, , 2009Bar, Aminoff, Mason, & Fenske, 2007;Binder, et al, 1999;Buckner & Vincent, 2007;Singer, 1966;Smallwood & Schooler, 2006).…”

“…Embora o autocontrole tenha sido pesquisado em vários contextos, como por exemplo na área organizacional (Konopkin, Stepanskii & Kondrat'eva, 1973;Herman, 1971, dentre outros), e na área clínica (Gold & Cundiff, 1980;Harris & Johnson, 1980, por exemplo), a maior quantidade de estudos é encontrada na área da educação (Dutrow & Houston, 1981;Kearney, 1966;Saltz & Meade, 1973;Wolfe & Johnson, 1995, entre outros). Nessa área, vários estudos têm apontado o autocontrole como um bom previsor do desempenho acadêmico.…”
