“…Participants from the School sample were more likely in a situational setting involving teachers or other students that contributed to the Aha-experience, whereas participants from the University and MTurk sample were more often physically alone prior to the Aha-experience. These results conform with Tidikis and Ash (2013), where the authors found that groups, compared to individual approaches, did not lead to solving more problems or reduce solving time of insight tasks. However, by adapting the hierarchical model, replacing Aha-Types with activities, we found that women, in contrast to men, generally do engage in interaction during work or leisure-type activities rather than performing these activities in isolation (see phd.skaar.net/thesis/results4/).…”

“…While studies have widely used insight problems as a measure of creativity (e.g., Ash et al, 2009;Duncker, 1945;Gilhooly et al, 2015;Tidikis & Ash, 2013), insight problems may represent only one aspect of the creative process. Starting with Guilford and colleagues (1951), the idea that creativity requires both divergent thinking (producing possible associations) and convergent thinking (narrowing down useful ideas) has been widely accepted by creativity researchers (Kaufman, & Sternberg, 2010).…”

“…The exact nature of this function is debated in the literature. For example, the evolutionary theory proposes that a leader is necessary for coordination among group members when carrying out a common task (Van Vugt, Hogan, & Kaiser, 2008). Other researchers (e.g., Guastello, 2009) dispute this position by explaining the inevitability of leadership emergence in terms of a need for communication.…”
