Wandering minds, wandering mice: Computer mouse tracking as a method to detect mind wandering
作者：
Highlights：
• Computer mouse movements were used to predict mind wandering during an online task.
• When mind wandering, participants took longer to initiate and to complete a response.
• When mind wandering, participants flipped the cursor more often along the x- and y-axes.
• More flips indicate that movements were more corrective in nature.
• Our findings indicate that mind wandering and bodily movements are interdependent.
