本研究的目的是调查在解释模糊数字时,具有意象创造性的人是否比没有意象创造性的人更好。在意象范式中,创造力被认为涉及两个过程:组合游戏和发现。发现在创造力中起着重要作用,因为它是识别,判断或解释心理结构价值的过程。此外,创造性的人被认为是有洞察力的,从而支持这里提出的命题,即在意象方面有创造性的人比在意象方面没有创造性的人更快地解释和找到模糊数字的替代解释。本研究报告了在图形组合任务中测量的知觉和心理意象的发现。这些数据支持这样的结论,即在意象方面有创造力的人更有能力重新解释模糊的数字,而且他们的发现比在意象方面没有创造力的人更快。对受试者如何得出他们的发现的问题的分析也可以说明关于顿悟作为一种快速模式识别的完形文献。
The purpose of the research study was to investigate whether people creative in imagery are better than people non-creative in imagery at interpreting ambiguous figures. Creativity, in the imagery paradigm, is said to involve two processes: combinational play and discovery. Discovery plays a major role in creativity as it is the process of discerning, judging or interpreting the value of a mental construction. Furthermore, creative people have been said to be insightful thus supporting the proposition advanced here that people creative in imagery are faster at interpreting and finding alternative interpretations for ambiguous figures than people less creative in imagery. This study reports both latencies and discoveries in perception and mental imagery as measured on a figure combination task. The data support the conclusion that people creative in imagery are more capable in reinterpreting ambiguous figures and that they are quicker in their discoveries than people less creative in imagery. The analysis to the questions of how the subjects arrived at their discoveries may also illustrate the Gestalt literature on insight as a rapid pattern recognition.
