Boredom is frequently considered inconsequential and has received relatively little research attention. We argue that boredom has important implications for human functioning, based on emotion theory and empirical evidence. Specifically, we argue that boredom motivates pursuit of new goals when the previous goal is no longer beneficial. Exploring alternate goals and experiences allows the attainment of goals that might be missed if people fail to reengage. Similar to other discrete emotions, we propose that boredom has specific and unique impacts on behavior, cognition, experience and physiology. Consistent with a broader argument that boredom encourages the behavioral pursuit of alternative goals, we argue that, while bored, attention to the current task is reduced, the experience of boredom is negative and aversive, and that boredom increases autonomic arousal to ready the pursuit of alternatives. By motivating desire for change from the current state, boredom increases opportunities to attain social, cognitive, emotional and experiential stimulation that could have been missed. We review the limited extant literature to support these claims, and call for more experimental boredom research.
Either the well was very deep, or she fell very slowly, for she had plenty of time as she went down to look about her and to wonder what was going to happen next. First, she tried to look down and make out what she was coming to, but it was too dark to see anything; then she looked at the sides of the well, and noticed that they were filled with cupboards and book-shelves; here and there she saw maps and pictures hung upon pegs.

In the classic story
The experience of boredom is ubiquitous and occurs frequently in daily life across a variety of cultures [
While applied and clinical research on trait boredom appears to be growing, relatively little experimental work has focused on the effects of state boredom. In fact, a recent meta-analysis revealed 510 articles that dealt with the impact of happiness, sadness, anxiety, or anger [
Functional accounts of emotion argue that emotions arise from specific environmental conditions or problems, and serve to organize responses to those conditions [
In addition to unique environmental precursors, these accounts typically posit that discrete emotions are associated with changes in behavior, cognition, experience, and physiology. For example, anxiety engenders behaviors intended to avoid threats, cognitions that highlight threats and coping, the subjective experience of anxiety and threat, and physiological changes that prepare the organism for self-preservation. A recent meta-analysis supported the general claim that discrete emotions (
Although each emotion (happiness, sadness, anger, and anxiety) signals that action is needed to accomplish goals in a functional account of emotion, these models do not indicate when or why people will disengage from current goal pursuits. The models include the possibility that extreme sadness, indicating that a goal is irrevocably lost (e.g., a loved one has died), might result in goal switching. Other than this, though, it is not clear when or why people will take up new goals, which, according to qualitative evidence, people do frequently [
Previous theoretical work has proposed that boredom is a discrete emotion [
It is well known that emotions fade over time [
Importantly, boredom does not discriminate the valence of a goal that should be switched to, it simply encourages changing to a new goal. We propose that, because boredom motivates a desire for change, the specific goal that is desired would be dependent upon the current state. That is, reference points would determine the goal that boredom motivates, as the desirable goal would be one that is different from the current situation. Due to this, boredom could encourage changes that result in negative emotion, such as looking attentively at an animal corpse on the side of road during a long drive. Boredom could even motivate goals that result in actual risk, such as high stakes gambling or sex with multiple partners. While pursuing negative outcomes and emotions (ant-hedonic behaviors) is in many ways maladaptive, there may be some benefits as well. Anti-hedonism permits the attainment of opportunities that would have otherwise been missed [
The function that we propose for boredom is somewhat similar to that proposed for other negative emotions that encourage goal pursuit, most notably anger and frustration [
It is also important to distinguish two affective states involving dissatisfaction with the current situation: boredom and apathy. Apathy results from recognition of complete failure or helplessness [
Based on our proposal regarding the environmental conditions that give rise to boredom, we next discuss the potential specific and unique impacts of boredom on cognition, behavior, experience, and physiology. These impacts are outlined in
Proposed effects of boredom and the manifestation of those effects.
|Motivational—Pursue a new goal
|Preferences for novel stimuli; preference for risk.
|Motivational—pursue a new goal
|Attention devoted to novel stimuli; mind wandering.
|Motivational—pursue a new goal
|Experience the current state as negative and averse; elicits avoidance of a state of boredom.
|Motivational—pursue a new goal
|Increased autonomic arousal.
The proposed function of boredom to motivate pursuit of alternative goals and experiences, even those that might elicit negative emotions, should be reflected in behavior. Research examining the relationship between trait boredom and risk taking behaviors partially supports this proposal, although trait boredom may well differ from the effects of state boredom [
The impact of the experience of state boredom on behavior has received relatively little research attention. In one of the few studies we are aware of, participants completed a task to induce boredom, and then were told that, due to time constraints, they would only be able to complete one of two follow up studies. Participants were then allowed to choose between a study described as completing questionnaires of common events (e.g., how often do you eat breakfast) or a study involving watching a film that would elicit intense negative emotions and high arousal and then answering questions. A small portion of participants chose to complete the study described as intensely negative and arousing. Participants that chose the negative arousing follow up study were those that experienced a lower level of sensory stimulation [
Preferences for novelty following boredom could also be reflected in changes in arousal. With repeated exposure, events become familiar and the amount of arousal they produce diminishes [
Another line of experimental studies investigating the impact of boredom on behavior has examined the role of meaning. The pursuit of meaning is proposed to be a fundamental aspect of human life, and provides a sense of purpose [
Boredom may also serve a function in social situations, as emotions are proposed to have powerful impacts on interactions [
The pursuit of alternative goals and experiences engendered by boredom is likely to be reflected in shifting attention to novel stimuli. This could be reflected in alternative external or internal stimuli. External stimuli would be any change in the environment. This could be moving to a different location, pursuing a new activity or challenge (e.g., quitting work to return to school), or engaging a different person or group of people. Internal stimuli could be changes in thoughts, affect, arousal, or attention (e.g., to stop attending to what is being read and start focusing on the birds heard outside the window). All of these changes would introduce new stimulation.
Consistent with our proposal, boredom has powerful effects on attention (for a complete review see [
Consistent with our proposal that boredom shifts attention to alternative goals and experiences, research also suggests that boredom is associated with greater mind wandering. "Mind wandering" refers to shifts in attention away from a current task and toward unrelated cognitions and feelings [
Finally, it has been suggested that boredom can increase creativity [
The experience of boredom should be negative and aversive, creating a desire to change from the current state and avoid future states of boredom. Consistent with this proposal, research has found that boredom is reported to be a negative affective experience [
A recent series of studies assessed the self-reported experience of boredom compared to other emotions [
Boredom should be associated with increased autonomic arousal to enable the pursuit of alternative goals and experiences, but potential physiological changes due to boredom have received little research attention. In two studies boredom was manipulated through the use of a vigilance task, or a repetitive writing task (
Boredom is frequently and commonly experienced, suggesting that it plays a valuable role in human goal pursuit. We propose that boredom is a discrete functional emotion, and serves to encourage people to seek new goals and experiences. Boredom provides a valuable adaptive function by signaling it is time to pursue a new goal. Much like Alice becoming distracted from her fear of falling and shifting her attention towards the cupboards and her upcoming conversations; we propose that boredom will motivate the pursuit of new goals as the intensity of the current experience fades. Experimental research is needed to test these claims, but the current paper provides a much needed direction for basic boredom research.

Through VSP Vision Care's Send a High Five campaign, you can help up to 50,000 Special Olympics athletes receive eye exams and related vision services with just a few clicks.
For many, seeing well can be a struggle, especially when it comes to people with intellectual disabilities. Approximately 2 percent of the global population, almost 200 million people, has ID and some estimates suggest that up to 40 percent of these individuals are also affected by some type of vision loss or abnormality. In light of this startling statistic, VSP Vision Care, a national nonprofit vision care company, has announced the Send a High Five campaign, a program that will provide comprehensive vision exams, critical follow-up eyecare, and related services and materials for up to 50,000 Special Olympics athletes across the United States, a total donation valued at $43 million.
The lack of access and barriers to quality eyecare for people with ID means vision correction needs often go undetected and unmet. Research has shown that not only do people with ID have a heightened risk for health and vision problems, but that medical professionals often lack the necessary training to work with them. The Send a High Five campaign was developed to help raise awareness about both the importance of healthy vision as well as the barriers to care people with ID face.
"Special Olympics is thrilled to be collaborating with VSP on the Send a High Five campaign," saya Dr. Timothy Shriver, Special Olympics chairman and CEO. "Access to quality health care is a critical issue facing our athletes worldwide, including in the United States. With VSP's support, we can now connect our Opening Eyes program to a national network of community-based providers and support increased access to care for people with intellectual disabilities."For every "high five" sent, VSP will donate a gift certificate to a Special Olympics athlete for a comprehensive eye exam, and if needed, glasses as well as additional services, such as low vision, vision therapy, and a medical allowance at no cost to the athlete. VSP's donated services will further strengthen the Special Olympics Opening Eyes program by increasing access to necessary vision care and ensuring that the program will be able to provide critical follow-up services where they are needed most."At VSP, we believe everyone deserves to see their best, and when we learned that more than 35 percent of Special Olympics athletes have not received an eye exam in more than three years, we saw an opportunity to help make a difference," says Kate Renwick-Espinosa, chief marketing officer of VSP Global. "With this campaign, sending a 'high five' not only serves as a sign of support and awareness, but actually makes a meaningful impact on the health and lives of these incredible athletes."For more information about the VSP Send a High Five campaign and to participate, visit SeeMuchMore.com. The site also includes helpful information about the benefits of healthy vision and an interactive game to teach players more about the importance of annual eye exams and vision insurance.

Video: Samantha Pleet SS 2011, Starring Victoria Legrand, Directed by David Black.
Mercedes Benz Fashion Week might have a new location this year at Lincoln Center, but the freshest and most creative fashion presentations arguably were found off-site. A perfect example was Samantha Pleet's Spring/Summer 2011 presentation, which was part of the Greenshows downtown. A film created by Pleet's friend David Black featured BeachHouse singer Victoria Legrand as a star-crossed lover. The film and still images were projected onto the walls surrounding models styled by Christina Turner in jewelry by Bliss Lau and shoes designed specially for Pleet by Osborne.
Nothing about the clothing looked particularly eco-friendly, ethically sound or fair trade, but it was nice to know that fantastic design and styling can be all those things without screaming "green." To top off the evening, Pleet gathered friends and fans at the Classic Car Club, where she and I grabbed a seat in 1955 Porsche 550 Spyder for a quick interview...
(Photographs by Kristen Philipkoski)
KP: How did the film collaboration come about?
SP: Dave and I had worked on my last spring film. We're really good friends. My friend Turner also really wanted to style the film, so the three of us came together went down to Baltimore's Pretty Boy Dam. (Beachhouse is from Baltimore). We were a tight crew of eight people and we drove down in two cars, and shot the whole thing over a weekend. It ended up being this lost lovers film of finding something 10 years later and having this melancholy but beautiful feeling towards it which really went well with the collection.
KP: What was your inspiration for Spring/Summer 2011?
SP: Twin Peaks is always an inspiration for me. I'm really influenced by film: Godard, David Lynch, Czech new age films. I think the subconscious element really comes out in my designs. I was also reading Franny and Zooey and Moby Dick, so the line has a nautical New England twisted preppiness with the collared shirts. They're very masculine.
KP: What's your over-arching approach to designing clothes?
SP: I want the girl to be able to create her own story and feel special in the clothes. I'm not so trend driven. You could put (one of my pieces) on five years later, or give it to your grandchildren one day. I wear my grandmother's clothes from the 50s. But i don't want my clothes to look vintage. I want them to be modern but have that feeling.
KP: I loved the bathing suits!
SP: I personally love going to the beach, but i go with friends. So i don't necessarily want to wear a string bikini. I love high waisted pieces. One of them you can wear high waisted or you can make it low -- it's the new reversible. I generally like either really high or low. I don't really like the in between mom waistline.
(The print on the white suit) came from artwork on a 15th century manuscript called Hours of Catherine Cleves that my husband (an architect) found. We spent weeks creating it, it was very challenging. It was all original artwork that we reinvented on Illustrator.
KP: You work on your designs with your husband. What's it like to mix work and marriage?
SP: We are best friends we share everything. He's so creative but we are very different. I'm very fast with a million ideas, and he's very deliberate. Our two minds work well together in our relationship and our work. We have a very strong relationship; we're very lucky.
KP: Tell me how your line is "green?"
SP: I work with all local business and source my material as locally as possible. I work with people who i really believe in, like Osborne. I'm pretty much a one-person company. I produce everything locally in New York City. I use organic cottons. I think I have a really small carbon footprint. I hand-deliver my garments to stores in New York, and as I've been growing bigger that hasn't changed. All the clothes in my collaboration with Urban Outfitters were organic.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Michael Dell is about to find out if other bidders think his company is worth more than he does.
The answer could come Friday. It marks the end of a 45-day period that Dell Inc.'s board of directors settled on to allow for offers that might top a Feb. 5 agreement to sell the PC maker to CEO Michael Dell and a group of investors for $24.4 billion.
Blackstone Group is emerging as a likely candidate to trump the current bid of $13.65 per share.
A person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press that Blackstone is so intrigued with the prospect of owning Dell that the firm has been courting former Hewlett-Packard Co. CEO Mark Hurd to run Dell if it decides to mount a hostile takeover attempt.

Two teams that went winless in the conference season won in the opening conference tournament game. DePaul went 0-18 in Big East play yet managed to upset Cincinnati on Tuesday. On Wednesday Air Force beat Colorado State despite going 0-16 in the Mountain West regular season. These are the types of things that happen this time of year as a favorite can often overlook a team at the bottom of the conference, even if the favorite seemingly should have serious motivating factors.
Much of the bubble intrigue has focused on the Big Ten, where as many as eight teams could get into the NCAA tournament. Although the Big Ten does not have the top heavy powerhouse teams that some of the other conferences have, the depth has warranted that type of consideration. The Big East gets a lot of attention and could even have three #1 seeds but according to the Sagarin ratings the Big Ten is the stronger league this season, second in the nation just behind the ACC. Minnesota and Michigan did their part to get into the dance with wins on Thursday, barring a major upset Penn State should beat Indiana, which might be enough to get in. Two teams that seemed safe last week, Wisconsin and Ohio State may face more importance on their game Friday as the loser might end up last in the pecking order for the conference with all the other bubble teams taking wins.
A pair of teams that everyone knew was very talented, but that grossly underachieved in the season have emerged in the conference tournaments with the do-or-die mentality finally sparking some strong play. Kansas got a lot of help in becoming the #1 seed in the Big 12 tournament so it should not be considered a shocking upset by any means but Baylor has delivered two impressive efforts. The Bears were a ranked team early in the year and appeared to be a certain postseason squad but completely fell flat in Big 12 play. The Bears are showing up now and will need to keep the wins coming. Southern Mississippi is another team that was expected to fare much better in Conference USA and is starting to show up in the conference tournament despite coming from a deep seed. It will be asking a lot to make a run for the automatic bid for either team, but stranger things have happened, like last season when Georgia made a surprise run through the SEC tournament.

if you told me that mike moooosina would have 9 wins in early june, johnny damon would be hitting .300 and has 2 hits a night ( it seems), the giambino has an obp over .400 , matsui is leading the league in hitting AND rivera ha an era under .3 and looking better than ever and you said we were in last place i would laught till i dropped dead.. but that is the case .. who could have expected one combined win from hughes and kennedy wang and andy looking like average pitchers and managment completely screwing up what we had in joba as the setup man and a pen who cant get an out . oh and by the way a manager who cost us about 5-10 wins already i have no idea what to make of this team if we are even a contender this year or not. when the heck are we goin to hit homeruns and score 8, 9 or 10 runs again. seems like making joba a starter mid season is like throwing in the towel we literally gave away a game so joba can throw a live bulpen i just dont get it..
If Joba makes the transition and turns into our number 1 come postseason, it'll be worth it. I just have a problem with them toying around with this transition in the majors. It's now cost us a couple of games, and I don't think it was the best way for him personally to get ready to be a starter. They should've sent him down for 10 days, let him do it the right way, then they could've brought him up and had him ready to throw 100 pitches and dominate for 7 innings.
Joey Jr. will have less ways to screw with the lineup starting tomorrow.

Ah, that's a good clue, thanks - I'll try to figure out what exactly
it is that hostapd doesn't like about the environment during boot.

Unfortunately that will fail if WPA is used on more than one wireless
interface (hostapd can't write its PID to a file after forking,
unlike most other daemons), which is why I chose the nohup solution.
