Improving insight and non-insight problem solving with brief interventions.
Developing brief training interventions that benefit different forms of problem solving is challenging. In earlier research, Chrysikou (2006) showed that engaging in a task requiring generation of alternative uses of common objects improved subsequent insight problem solving. These benefits were attributed to a form of implicit transfer of processing involving enhanced construction of impromptu...
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 کاملDynamics and constraints in insight problem solving.
This article reports 2 experiments that investigated performance on a novel insight problem, the 8-coin problem. The authors hypothesized that participants would make certain initial moves (strategic moves) that seemed to make progress according to the problem instructions but that nonetheless would guarantee failure to solve the problem. Experiment 1 manipulated the starting state of the probl...
متن کاملDistributed Cognition and Insight Problem Solving
Problem solving from a distributed cognitive system perspective is an emergent product of the strategic and opportunistic manipulation of artefacts populating a physical space. In the present study, insight problem solving was investigated with matchstick algebra problems. These problems are false equations expressed with Roman numerals transformed into true equations by moving one matchstick. ...
متن کاملAsymmetrical Analogical Transfer in Insight Problem Solving
We report three experiments that examine transfer between structurally and superficially similar insight problems. Experiment 1 showed spontaneous positive transfer from a difficult insight problem to an easier one, but not vice versa. Experiment 2 replicated this asymmetry when participants were given an explicit hint as to the relatedness of the problems. Experiment 3 introduced physical prop...
