Divergent thinking involves the ability to find many different and new responses or solutions to open-ended problems. The ability to think divergently has been associated with different cognitive processes, including intuitive and rational thinking styles. However, research has not specifically addressed the extent to which divergent thinking is…

Chuderski, Adam; Jastrzebski, Jan – Creativity Research Journal, 2018
The literature on insight problems--problems that supposedly can only be solved by rejection of an initial faulty problem representation and sudden comprehension of another, nonobvious representation (restructuring)--suggests that the size of initial representations affects the very process of problem solving. Large initial representations impose…

Ovington, Linda A.; Saliba, Anthony J.; Goldring, Jeremy – Creativity Research Journal, 2016
This article reports the development of a brief self-report measure of dispositional insight problem solving, the Dispositional Insight Scale (DIS). From a representative Australian database, 1,069 adults (536 women and 533 men) completed an online questionnaire. An exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis revealed a 5-item scale, with all…

Chuderski, Adam; Jastrzebski, Jan – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017
The "nothing-special" account of insight predicts positive correlations of insight problem solving and working memory capacity (WMC), whereas the "special-process" account expects no, or even negative, correlations. In the latter vein, DeCaro, Van Stockum Jr., and Wieth (2016) have recently reported weak negative WMC…

Karwowski, Maciej – Gifted and Talented International, 2008
Two studies were conducted to show connections between giftedness and intuition. The first study was exploratory. A sample of 194 gifted adolescent students (N=194) included fifty-five students identified as gifted by their teachers and fifty-six percent who were female. Using the Polish version of the Myers Briggs Type Indicator, the students…

Dollinger, Stephen J.; Palaskonis, Dimitra G.; Pearson, Jodi L. – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2004
This study used the recently revised Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and a variety of validated creativity measures to replicate a classic finding--that sensing-intuition predicts creativity--and to evaluate whether the other MBTI scales add to the prediction of creativity. 94 undergraduates completed the MBTI (form M self-scorable) and…
