Es freut mich sehr, dass die Relevanz von #Langeweile auch vermehrt außerhalb der Forschung behandelt wird & dass reichweitenstarke Zeitungen wie die Coopzeitung Langeweile sogar als Titelthema thematisieren: https://epaper.coopzeitung.ch/epaper/newsstand.php

Vielen Dank für das nette Gespräch @julia_gohl!

Still fascinated by this remarkably vivid illustration of boredom in sports, its differentation from fatigue & the importance of context for experiencing boredom. From 1926 🤯

"Discussion on the physical and mental effects of monotony in modern industry"

Now accepted in "Sport, Exercise, and Performance Psychology" 🥳

tl;dr: more evidence on link between boredom & difficulty of task engagement: If athletes found sticking to their training difficult, they were more bored by it - especially if training sessions were not valued.
