چکیده
هدف این پژوهش بررسی اثر کنترل توجه بر سرگردانی ذهن می­باشد. روش این پژوهش به صورت نیمه آزمایشی بوده است. جامعه­ی آماری شامل دانش­آموزان دختر پایه­ی پنجم و ششم ابتدایی شهر سمنان در سال تحصیلی 1400-1401 است. تعداد 38 نفر از افراد جامعه­ی آماری به صورت در دسترس محاسبه شد که به جهت پیش بینی افت آزمودنی­ها یا از دست رفتن داده­ها، 2 نفر از تعداد نمونه­ی محاسبه شده بیشتر در مطالعه حضور داشتند. ابزار اندازه­گیری سرگردانی ذهن آزمون استروپ بود که در شرایط کنترل توجه فعال و واکنشی تکمیل شد. داده­ها با استفاده از تحلیل واریانس یک عاملی اندازه­گیری مکرر و توسط نرم افزار SPSS25 تحلیل شدند. یافته­ها نشان داد که سرگردانی ذهن در شرایط کنترل توجه فعال بیشتر از شرایط کنترل توجه واکنشی است. یافته های این مطالعه می تواند در شناخت پدیده سرگردانی ذهن بینش مفیدی به دست دهد. معلمین و طراحان آموزشی می­توانند با داشتن دانش مربوط به این زمینه اقدام به طراحی و تولید محتواهای آموزشی­ای کنند که دانش­آموزان در طی آموزش مجازی که کمترین نظارت از سوی معلم در جریان یادگیری اتفاق می­افتد، منجر به تجربه­ی سرگردانی ذهن کمتر از سوی دانش­آموزان شود.

چکیده English

The purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of attention control on mind wandering. The method of this research was semi-experimental. The statistical population includes fifth and sixth grade female students of Semnan city in the academic year of 1400-1401. The number of 38 people from the statistical population was calculated as available, and in order to predict the drop of the subjects or the loss of data, 2 people were present in the study more than the number of the calculated sample. The tool used to measure mind wandering was the Stroop test, which was completed under active and reactive attention control conditions. The data were analyzed using one-factor analysis of variance and repeated measurement by SPSS25 software. The findings showed that mind wandering is more in active attention control conditions than in reactive attention control conditions. The findings of this study can provide useful insight in understanding the phenomenon of mind wandering. Teachers and educational designers, having the knowledge related to this field, can design and produce educational content that students will experience during virtual education, where the minimum supervision by the teacher takes place during the learning process. The wandering of the mind will be less on the part of the students.
