Direct linkLi, Yangping; Beaty, Roger E.; Luchini, Simone; Dai, David Yun; Xiang, Shuoqi; Qi, Senqing; Li, Yadan; Zhao, Ruili; Wang, Xuewei; Hu, Weiping – Creativity Research Journal, 2023
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) has been shown to enhance divergent and convergent creative thinking. Yet, how stimulation impacts creative performance over time, and what cognitive mechanisms underlie any such enhancement, remain largely unanswered questions. In the present research,…

Schatz, Jule; Jones, Steven J.; Laird, John E. – Cognitive Science, 2022
The Remote Associates Test (RAT) is a word association retrieval task that consists of a series of problems, each with three seemingly unrelated prompt words. The subject is asked to produce a single word that is related to all three prompt words. In this paper, we provide support for a theory in which the RAT assesses a person's ability to…

Vitrano, Deana; Altarriba, Jeanette; Leblebici-Basar, Deniz – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2021
S.A. Mednick (1962) proposed a theory of creativity suggesting that highly creative individuals can produce more word associations to a stimulus than less creative individuals. Numerous studies have supported this theory using the Remote Associates Test (RAT) as the measure of creativity. Additionally, some studies have suggested that…

Transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) increases performance in some perceptual tasks. However, little is known about its effect on creativity. Although dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) has been postulated as an important cortical area related to creativity, the relative role of left and right DLPFC is still unclear. We aimed to…

LeBoutillier, Nicholas; Barry, Richard – Creativity Research Journal, 2018
Research into psychological mindedness (PM) has focuses on its beneficial role in improving physical and mental well-being. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of two PM measures and personality in predicting creative cognition performance. Following the completion of a battery of questionnaires, 176 participants from the general…
