Exploring patterns of ongoing thought under naturalistic and conventional task-based conditions
Description
In the 'Exploring patterns of ongoing thought under naturalistic and conventional task-based conditions' paper we used 9 different tasks and measured ongoing thought using multidimensional experience sampling. A Principal Component Analysis of the experience sampling data revealed four patterns of ongoing thought. Linear Mixed Modelling was used to conduct a series of exploratory analyses aimed at examining contextual distributions of these thought patterns. A repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) was run to examine how the contextual influences on each dimension of thought related to the measures of affective style. Our study characterises how the thoughts people think vary across multiple task conditions, providing new insight about the variation of ongoing thought patterns across contexts that include both conventional and naturalistic situations.
