Research Question: Relationship between Task Modality and Mind Wandering
The relationship between task modality and mind wandering modality is an underexplored topic in mind wandering literature (to date there are only 2 studies directly examining this relationship).
Considering the important role of cross-modal and dual-task. Is it possible that the verbal nature of the text in Kopp and D’mello’s (2016) study encourage more verbal mind wandering (in a low resource demand condition) and the increase in verbal mind wandering impaired performance on a verbal task?
Compulsory to use this 2 articles as main source, along with other research article. These 2 articles are uploaded for you already.
Study 1: Kopp & D’mello (2016) Impact of modality on mind wandering during comprehension
Study 2: Choi et al. (2017) More visual mind wandering occurrence during visual task performance
