Process analytic models of creative capacities

Abstract: Although a number of factors condition the success of creative efforts, most investigators recognize the fundamental importance of novel problem solutions. As a result, a number of systems intending to describe the processes contributing to the generation of innovative problem solutions have been proposed. In the present article, earlier models describing the processes contributing to creative problem solutions are reviewed. The common themes appearing in these models are then considered in relation to the use… Show more

“…Hence, creative thinking may be facilitated when enough cognitive resources are available. Thus, a hypothetical model (Mumford et al, 1991) and previous findings (Baird et al, 2012) suggest that creative thinking requires cognitive resources. To further examine this issue, the present study focuses on a simpler method of enhancing creativity-simply closing the eyes.…”
