Abstract

The proposed study looked to explore boredom as a behavioral and neuropsychological response. Results indicated a significant effect across variables with F = 4.957, p = .017. However, within subject contrasts revealed significance only between the boredom induction paradigm and the secondary baseline period (F = 7.360, p = .014).
