Investigating the neural correlates of insight with the compound remote associate task

Cranford, Edward Andrew 07 August 2010 (has links)
This thesis investigates the utility of using the Compound Remote Associate (CRA) problem, developed by Bowden and Jung-Beeman (2003), in investigating the neural correlates insight. It is uncertain to what extent CRA problems are insight problems. In Experiment 1, I performed a protocol analysis of people solving CRA problems and found that CRA problems can and should be used to investigate insight. However, certain considerations should be taken. Particularly, researchers should separate problems solved with insight when the solution is the first thing considered (immediate-insight) from problems solved with insight when the solution is obtained after at least some deliberation (delayed-insight). Parsing insight solutions into separate categories, I performed a functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) experiment. The results suggest a distinct difference in processing between delayed and immediate insight solutions. The results shed light into possible irregularities in prior studies and provide important considerations for future research on insight problem solving.

Insights from the past: Does access to unsuccessful problem attempts facilitate restructuring in insight problems?

Creel, Emily Ann Williamson 10 May 2024 (has links) (PDF)
Insight problems are often comprised of a period of impasse during which no new attempts are generated followed by an abrupt realization of the solution arising from the restructuring of an initial flawed problem representation. However, the precise mechanisms precipitating these processes are still being investigated. One hypothesis is that analyzing the unchanging elements of previous attempts may facilitate restructuring. We investigated this hypothesis using three classic insight problems. Participants were provided either three common examples of unsuccessful problem attempts, their own problem attempts, or no previous attempts. The prior attempts conditions eliminate the need to rely on memory to access previous unsuccessful attempts so that this mechanism could be investigated. Individual differences in working memory capacity and cognitive reflection were also collected. While there was no overall effect of the prior attempts conditions, both working memory and cognitive reflection were identified as significant predictors of restructuring and solving across problems and conditions.
