Start of study of research on psychology

I went to this website and it shows tons of research done on daydreaming. One that caught my attention is Singer & Antrobus which in one study done 579 college students revealed that if the student is thinking positive the daydream is vivid, if guilty the daydream is dysphoric or dissatisfactic, and if anxious the daydream is distractible.

  1. These are class notes so you might want to check out the original research. You might also want to be able to define daydreaming. Is it different than the just the thoughts that run through my head when not on task? Is daydreaming related to stress? creativity? Are there gender differences?
