Objective: This research explored arousal levels as a motivating factor for solitude‐seeking. We hypothesized that solitude becomes more desirable when high‐arousal emotions were heightened and individual differences in extraversion and neuroticism w...

Experience sampling reveals the role that covert goal states play in task-relevant behavior (2023)
Journal Article
Mckeown, B., Strawson, W. H., Zhang, M., Turnbull, A., Konu, D., Karapanagiotidis, T., …Smallwood, J. (2023). Experience sampling reveals the role that covert goal states play in task-relevant behavior. Scientific Reports, 13(1), Article 21710. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-023-48857-0

Cognitive neuroscience has gained insight into covert states using experience sampling. Traditionally, this approach has focused on off-task states. However, task-relevant states are also maintained via covert processes. Our study examined whether ex...
