Frequent daydreaming suggests you have a capable working memory, according to new research published in the journal Psychological Science.

This "mind-wandering", as it is termed, actually gives the working memory a workout.

The working memory is the mental work space that allows the brain to juggle multiple thoughts simultaneously.

The more working memory a person has, the more daydreaming they can do without forgetting the task at hand. (点击LiveScience网站查看原文)

为什么白日做梦有益?

       一项发布于学术期刊《心理科学》的最新研究显示,经常做白日梦显示一个人的工作记忆力强大。

       这种被称为“神游”的现象其实锻炼了工作记忆力。

       工作记忆就是精神中允许大脑同时分析多重思想的工作区域。

       一个人的工作记忆力越强,他们在不影响手头工作的情况下,做白日梦的频率就越高。
