Abstract

Mind wandering is a pervasive feature of experience. But why does the mind wriggle about rather than stay focused? The answer depends on understanding mind wandering as task‐unrelated thought. Despite being the standard view of mind wandering in cognitive psychology, there has been no systematic elaboration of the task‐unrelated thought view of mind wandering. I argue for the task‐unrelated thought view by showing how mind wandering reflects a distinctive form of non‐vigilant thinking. This argument defuses several objections to the task‐unrelated thought view. The account of mind wandering defended here is also compatible with a naturalistic account of subjectivity.
警惕性和思维游离
思维游离是经验的一个普遍特征。但为什么思维会四处游走,而不是保持专注呢?答案取决于将思维游离理解为与任务无关的思考。尽管心智游离是认知心理学的标准观点,但对心智游离的任务无关思维观点却没有系统的阐述。我通过说明思维游走如何反映了一种独特的非警觉性思维形式,来论证与任务无关的思维观点。这一论证化解了对任务无关思维观点的若干反对意见。本文所捍卫的思维游移观点也与主观性的自然主义观点相一致。
