Undergraduates daydream 1/3 of time

College students’ minds wander one-third of the time in their daily lives, according to a study which will be published in the July issue of Psychological Science. The study tracked 124 undergraduates with personal digital assistants for a week. The PDAs would ask the students various times in the day to report their thoughts. Students were not focusing on the task at hand about 30 percent of the time.
