Method of induction could affect emotional outcomes: comment on markey, chin, vanepps, and loewenstein (2014 ). Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Markey, Chin, Vanepps, and Loewenstein (2014) demonstrated six methods for the induction of boredom. However, a clear and testable definition of boredom should be established prior to experimental manipulation of the construct. Defining boredom from a functional emotion perspective is one approach that affords a definition separable from the outcomes associated with boredom and insight into which manipulations may effectively target the construct.
