Response: Commentary: Incubation and Intuition in Creative Problem Solving
Yuan and Shen (2016), in a commentary on Gilhooly's (2016) explanation of incubation in terms of Unconscious Work, suggested that a Dual Process account may be a useful alternative explanation. Although Dual Process theories have been useful in studies of decision making (Greene, 2007) and reasoning (Evans, 2008), I will argue that the usefulness of this approach to explaining incubation is not...
متن کاملIncubation and Intuition in Creative Problem Solving
Creative problem solving, in which novel solutions are required, has often been seen as involving a special role for unconscious processes (Unconscious Work) which can lead to sudden intuitive solutions (insights) when a problem is set aside during incubation periods. This notion of Unconscious Work during incubation periods is supported by a review of experimental studies and particularly by s...
متن کاملThe Role of an Incubation Period in Creative Problem Solving
This experimental study tested the spreading-activation hypothesis that an incubation period helps to sensitize problem solvers to relevant concepts. The study also tested the selective forgetting hypothesis that an incubation period helps to desensitize problem solvers to irrelevant concepts. Chinese Chess GO players, 28 experts and 29 novices, solved 18 remote association tasks (RAT) and lexi...
متن کاملIntuition in insight and noninsight problem solving.
People’s metacognitions, both before and during problem solving, may be of importance in motivating and guiding problem-solving behavior. These metacognitions could also be diagnostic for distinguishing among different classes of problems, each perhaps controlled by different cognitive processes. In the present experiments, intuitions on classic insight problems were compared with those on noni...
متن کاملModeling the Aha! Moment: a Computational Mechanism for Structuring and Incubation in Creative Problem Solving
The underlying mechanisms giving rise to insightful problem solving are largely unknown, although models have been proposed that suggest phases of incubation, restructuring, and insight. Here, we propose a single computational mechanism that models the dynamics of structuring percepts to create an internal belief representation and subsequent restructuring of that belief representation, in whic...
