I pulled some quotes on the flow experience from: Jackson, S. A. (1996). Toward a conceptual understanding of the flow experience in elite athletes. Research quarterly for exercise and sport, 67(1), 76-90.
I also can’t resist mentioning a method paper. This is the one to read to understand the current state of the research and how researchers have gone about defining flow: Abuhamdeh, S. (2020). Investigating the “flow” experience: Key conceptual and operational issues. Frontiers in psychology, 11, 158. https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/...
The link between rest and deliberate practice comes from Ericsson et al.’s first big paper on deliberate practice, cited below at pages 370-71. AFAIK, it hasn’t been an aspect that’s been deeply explored. Ericsson, K. A., Krampe, R. T., & Tesch-Römer, C. (1993). The role of deliberate practice in the acquisition of expert performance. Psychological review, 100(3), 363. https://psycnet.apa.org/doiLanding?do...
The relationship between confusion, frustration, and learning is complex - more complex than I alluded to in the video. Ryan Baker and his colleagues have done a lot of work recently exploring this space - here’s a couple of representative pieces:
Richey, J. E., Andres-Bray, J. M. L., Mogessie, M., Scruggs, R., Andres, J. M., Star, J. R., ... & McLaren, B. M. (2019). More confusion and frustration, better learning: The impact of erroneous examples. Computers & Education, 139, 173-190. https://par.nsf.gov/servlets/purl/101... (finding that combined "confusion and frustration" predicted learning)
