“…Results of this study converge with other research suggesting that boredom may be associated with inattention (Carriere, Cheyne, & Smilek, 2007;Cheyne, Carriere, & Smilek, 2006;Ohsuga et al, 2001;Pattyn et al, 2008 baseline, boredom, interest, sadness) as the within subjects factor, were conducted to determine whether the target emotions differed in intensity and valence across each of the four epochs.…”

“…In our study, the No-cues group retrospectively reported a higher level of boredom experienced during the task compared to the Verbal-cues group, but no significant differences in the level of concentration. Whereas empirical work on the association between attention and boredom has largely focused on boredom proneness or trait boredom (e.g., Carriere, Cheyne, & Smilek, 2008;Cheyne, Carriere, & Smilek, 2006;Hunter & Eastwood, 2016;Isacescu, Struk, & Danckert, 2016), the few studies which investigated state boredom reported a positive association with poor sustained attention and mind wandering (Carriere et al, 2008;Hunter & Eastwood, 2016). However, the precise nature of this association has yet to be clarified and specifically the connection between state boredom and mind wandering both assessed "on-line" (during the task) deserves future investigation.…”

Our understanding of mind wandering (MW) has dramatically increased over the past decade. A key challenge still facing research is the identification of the processes and events that directly cause and control its occurrence. In the present study we sought to shed light on this question, by investigating the effects of verbal cues on the frequency and temporal focus of MW. To this aim, we experimentally manipulated the presence of irrelevant verbal cues during a vigilance task, in two independent groups (Verbal-cues group vs. No-cues group).We found that compared to the No-cues group, the Verbal-cues group reported a higher amount of MW, mostly triggered by the irrelevant cue-words, and a higher proportion of past-oriented MW compared to the other temporal orientations. These results demonstrate that task-irrelevant verbal stimulation increases the frequency of MW and steers its temporal orientation toward the past. Implications for the research on MW are discussed.

“…Zajednička komponenta različitih definicija dosade podrazumeva neprijatno, prolazno afektivno stanje tokom kojeg osoba oseća snažan nedostatak interesa za trenutnu aktivnost (Fisher, 1993). Brojni nalazi pokazuju da osobe koje su sklone da češće doživljavaju stanje dosade češće postižu visoke skorove na merama depresivnosti, usamljenosti, bespomoćnosti, anksioznosti (Farmer & Sundberg, 1986), krivice (McGibony & Carter, 1988), impulsivnosti (Watt & Vodanovich, 1992), kao i da češće imaju poremećaje pažnje (Carriere et al, 2008;Pattyn et al, 2008). Nalazi upućuju i na povezanost dosade sa niskim pozitivnim afektom, te doživljavanjem više negativnog afekta (Vodanovich, Verner, & Gilbride, 1991).…”

Većina kognitivnih modela pretpostavlja da se depresivno raspoloženje javlja kao odgovor na određeni stresni podsticaj iz sredine čak i niskog intenziteta, dok je pretpostavka neurobioloških modela da proces koji dovodi do depresivnog raspoloženja može biti pokrenut i u odsustvu bilo kakvih zahteva ili podsticaja iz okruženja. U ovom istraživanju su proveravane pretpostavke koje proističu iz dve relativno nezavisne teorijske perspektive – kognitivne i neurokognitivne, a koje se tiču situacionih činilaca koji, zavisno od nivoa vulnerabilnosti, dovode do afektivnih promena, i eventualno mogu otpočeti razvoj depresivnih simptoma. Uzorak je bio sačinjen od 72 ispitanika prosečne starosti 25 godina (SD = 4.18), uz upadljivo veću zastupljenost ispitanika ženskog (75.3%) pola. U prvoj grupi (N = 36), ispitanici su podvrgnuti standardnoj proceduri indukcije afekta koristeći muzički metod. U drugoj grupi primenjena je procedura bihejvioralne paradigme mirovanja (N = 36). Rezultati su pokazali da su obe procedure dovele do promena u raspoloženju, a dobijen je i značajan efekat interakcije eksperimentalnog uslova, vremena merenja, i vulnerabilnosti, kada je u pitanju negativni afekat. Obe eksperimentalne procedure dovele su, u obe grupe, do značajnog pada u nivou pozitivnog afekta. Promene u afektu nastupile su i kod vulnerabilnih i kod nevulnerabilnih ispitanika. Međutim, kod vulnerabilnih ispitanika koji su imali zadatak mirovanja došlo je i do blagog povišenja negativnog afekta, koje nije registrovano u grupi sa indukcijom afekta bez obzira na vulnerabilnost. Dobijeni rezultati daju delimičnu potvrdu kognitivnim, ali i neurobiološkim modelima.
