Theories
Sentinel Hypothesis
Even when we rest, we must broadly
monitor (pay attention to) our
environment.
In comparison, when we are active, we
focus our attention on the matter at hand.
Evolutionarily we may have evolved to be
always “on the lookout.”
Internal Mentation
DMN supports thinking and remembering,
the sort of daydreaming we do while
sitting quietly.
During resting, we silently recall past
events in our lives or imagine an event
that might happen to us in the future.
