While they were ostensibly being rated, the students were asked to play Tetris for 10 minutes. She then took photos of each of them, telling them that they would be rated on their physical attractiveness. Sweeny had 290 undergraduates fill in a form asking them about their personalities. “It is most readily achieved with activities that challenge the person somewhat, but not too much have clear, achievable goals and that provide the person with feedback about how they’re doing along the way.” “Flow requires a delicate balance,” said Prof Kate Sweeny, who led the research. If it’s too difficult, you get frustrated. If the activity isn’t challenging enough, you get bored. It can be achieved by concentrating on a single simple activity. ‘Flow’ is the term that psychologists use to describe a state of mind where you’re so engaged that the rest of the world falls away, and time passes more quickly.
