Spatiotemporal Dynamics of the Flow Experience: An EEG Microstate Analysis

Brain Topography September 2, 2026 Shiva Khoshnoud, Federico Alvarez Igarzábal, Marc Wittmann

Flow, as defined by Mihalyi Csikszentmihalyi (1975), is a holistic experience in which individuals are fully immersed in an activity, resulting in a diminished sense of self and an altered perception of time. To investigate the global neural dynamics underlying flow, we employed EEG microstate analysis, which capture the spatial and temporal properties of dominant transient global brain states...

Spatiotemporal dynamics of flow experience: an EEG microstate analysis

bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory) May 14, 2026 Shiva Khoshnoud, Federico Alvarez Igarzábal, Marc Wittmann

Flow, as defined by Mihalyi Csikszentmihalyi (1975), is a holistic sensation experienced when individuals are fully immersed in an activity, resulting in a mental state characterized by a diminished sense of self and altered perception of time. To investigate the global neural dynamics underlying flow, we employed EEG microstate analysis to capture the spatial and temporal properties of...
