Mind wandering during implicit learning is associated with increased periodic EEG activity and improved extraction of hidden probabilistic patterns

Psychology

Mind wandering during implicit learning is associated with increased periodic EEG activity and improved extraction of hidden probabilistic patterns

P. Simor, T. Vékony, et al.

Mind wandering occupies 30–50% of waking time and, contrary to common belief, can enhance probabilistic implicit learning rather than impair it. Using thought probes and high-density EEG, the study found that spontaneous mind wandering—linked to low-frequency, sleep-like cortical oscillations—helped extract hidden statistical patterns. This research was conducted by Péter Simor, Teodóra Vékony, Bence C. Farkas, Orsolya Szalárdy, Tamás Bogdány, Bianka Brezóczki, Gábor Csifcsák, and Dezső Németh.
