Mind wandering is not a classic behaviour but reporting on mind wandering is a behaviour
-
Yes, self reporting would be a task to evaluate it. Just like we have tasks that probe working memory.
-
but with mind wandering we could question whether doing a task (reporting) would make true mind wandering impossible
-
no idea how mind-wandering studies keep track of it, probably post-wandering you self-report you did it?
-
and I'm assuming that's in a mind wandering diary/app type thing where participants are sent "home" to get on with their life?
-
even tougher than dream studies as at least you can get participants to sleep in the lab... can you get them to mind wander in lab without
-
also making them lose their job/waste a day etc?
-
You just give them a task like reading and at random intervals ask whether they are mind wandering. 'probe caught mind wandering'

Although strictly speaking my reports of mind wandering are "wandering speech" and we don't have to posit a mind behind it...
