“…In recent years, it has been shown that levels of DMN activation are linked to the frequency and depth of mind‐wandering (Christoff, Gordon, Smallwood, Smith, & Schooler, 2009; Mason et al., 2007; Scheibner et al., 2017; Smallwood & Schooler, 2015). Hereby, mind‐wandering was defined as any kind of cognition independent of the task at hand, involving processes like retrieval of autobiographic memory, future planning or evaluating and judging the present (Scheibner et al., 2017). Mind‐wandering has been associated with several impairments in cognitive functioning (for a review, see Smallwood & Schooler, 2015), however, a reduction in mind‐wandering, as well as concurrent decrease in the DMN could be observed when applying meditation strategies (Berkovich‐Ohana, Harel, Hahamy, Arieli, & Malach, 2016; Scheibner et al., 2017).…”
