Description
Dr. Jonathan Schooler discusses issues related to attention, internal and external trains of thoughts, stages of consciousness from non-conscious to experience to meta-awareness. He discusses questions such as: the causal relationship between mind-wandering and comprehension failures; the relationship between mind wandering and speed in Gibberish detection. To observe mind wandering he conducted experiments through sampling and self report technique and observed participants’ minds wandering about unwanted, unnoticed thoughts and that often they didn't realize it. Dr. Schooler argues that meta-awareness is a critical component of mind wandering and recovered memories. He states that meta-awareness may bridge the gulf between internal and external experience and thereby enable the facts balancing between disparate internal and external trains of thoughts.
