摘要: Flow is the holistic experience felt when an individual acts with total involvement. Although flow likely associated many functions of prefrontal cortex (PFC), such as attention, emotion, and reward processing, no study has directly investigated activity PFC during flow. The objective this was to examine in state using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). Twenty right-handed university students performed a video game task under conditions designed induce psychological states boredom. During each completing scale for occupational tasks, change oxygenated hemoglobin (oxy-Hb) concentration frontal brain regions measured fNIRS. condition, oxy-Hb significantly increased right left ventrolateral cortex. Oxy-Hb tended decrease boredom condition. There significant increase dorsolateral cortex, pole areas, participants were after performing In conclusion, PFC, may therefore be cognition, maintenance internal goals, processing.
