ABSTRACT Associative thinking plays a major role in creativity, as it involves the ability to link distant concepts. Yet, the neural mechanisms allowing to combine distant associates in creative thinking tasks remain poorly understood. We investigated the whole-brain functional connectivity patterns related to combining remote associations for creative thinking. Using a connectome predictive modeling approach, we examined whole-brain functional connectivity patterns related to connecting close and distant remote associates in the Combination Association Task (CAT). Brain connectivity networks predicting CAT performance showed contributions from brain functional connectivity mostly related to the Default Mode Network, likely related to associative processes required in all trials of the task. Besides, the functional connectivity pattern of associative remoteness linked to CAT trials also largely involved the Executive Control Network, Dorsal Attention Network and Somatomotor networks, suggesting that more controlled processes played an important role in trials with higher associative remoteness. Critically, the functional connectivity patterns related to higher creative demands of the task share similarities with functional connectivity patterns previously found to predict divergent thinking. Thus, our work potentially offers insights into neural mechanisms that play a role in both convergent and divergent remote thinking.
联想思维在创造力中起着重要作用,因为它涉及到连接遥远概念的能力。然而,在创造性思维任务中,允许远距离伙伴结合的神经机制仍然知之甚少。我们研究了与结合远程联想进行创造性思维相关的全脑功能连接模式。使用连接组预测建模方法,我们在组合联想任务(CAT)中检查了与连接近距离和远距离联想相关的全脑功能连接模式。预测CAT性能的大脑连接网络显示,大脑功能连接的贡献主要与默认模式网络有关,可能与任务的所有试验中所需的联想过程有关。此外,与CAT试验相关的联想远程功能连接模式也主要涉及执行控制网络、背侧注意力网络和躯体运动网络,这表明更多的受控过程在具有更高联想远程的试验中发挥了重要作用。至关重要的是,与任务的更高创造性需求相关的功能连接模式与之前发现的预测发散思维的功能连接方式有相似之处。因此,我们的工作有可能深入了解在趋同和发散远程思维中发挥作用的神经机制。

Scientific progress on creativity research depends on having properly operationalized measures. In psychological research on creativity, it is common to operationalize creativity as the combination of novelty and appropriateness. However, the operationalization of appropriateness varies widely across researchers, studies, and domains (e.g. technical goodness, significance, elegance, usefulness, and feasibility). We argue that a core distinction between impact (how useful an idea is for solving the problem) and feasibility (how easy it is to realize the idea) underlies the variation. We further claim that this distinction is both possible to capture reliably in practice and psychologically significant. To test these claims, 318 ideas from 5 real-world social innovation problems (e.g. improving accessibility in elections) were rated for novelty, impact, and feasibility by a set of six experts selected for each of the 5 challenges. We find that all three constructs can be measured reliably and are statistically separable. Further, we show that distinguishing impact and feasibility reveals theoretically meaningful patterns of relationships with key psychological processes of creativity – analogy and conceptual combination – that would be difficult if impact and feasibility were conflated. These results demonstrate the theoretical importance of separating appropriateness into impact and feasibility for the psychology of creativity.
创造力研究的科学进展取决于是否有适当的可操作措施。在关于创造力的心理学研究中,通常将创造力视为新颖性和适当性的结合。然而,适当性的操作在研究人员、研究和领域(如技术的优点、重要性、优雅性、有用性和可行性)中差异很大。我们认为,影响(一个想法对解决问题有多有用)和可行性(实现这个想法有多容易)之间的核心区别是变化的基础。我们进一步声称,这种区别既可以在实践中可靠地捕捉到,也具有重要的心理意义。为了验证这些说法,针对5项挑战中的每一项,由6名专家组成的小组对来自5个现实世界社会创新问题(如提高选举的可及性)的318个想法的新颖性、影响力和可行性进行了评级。我们发现,所有三种结构都可以可靠地测量,并且在统计上是可分离的。此外,我们发现,区分影响和可行性揭示了与创造力的关键心理过程(类比和概念组合)的关系的理论上有意义的模式,如果将影响和可行性混为一谈,这将是困难的。这些结果证明了将适当性分为影响和可行性对创造力心理学的理论重要性。

Unconscious Work Doesn’t Work 无意识工作不起作用

ABSTRACT Why do creative ideas and solutions to unresolved problems benefit from taking a break? The idea of unconscious work as an explanation is so appealing that even after reading this paper, which states clearly that unconscious work is a fantasy based on no clear theory and no clear empirical evidence, some readers will claim that we are saying the opposite. Here, we explain why the imaginary meme of unconscious work is so difficult to eradicate from the scientific literature, including the fact that there is no clearly testable theory of unconscious work. Because the lack of a truly testable theory is one of the things that makes this meme so slippery, we propose a testable theory of unconscious work, the Autonomous Unconscious Thought Operations (AUTO) theory, which states that autonomous unconscious operations continuing over time is an essential feature of unconscious work. We describe some requirements of such a theory, and we propose empirical tests of the AUTO theory. We predict that autonomy of unconscious operations will be empirically falsified. The mechanism of unconscious work is not needed to explain so-called “incubation” effects, because there are several testable (and tested) explanations of what happens as a function of breaks from fixated problems, such as multiple bouts of forgotten conscious work, forgetting fixating responses, mind wandering, or set-shifting.
为什么对未解决问题的创造性想法和解决方案受益于休息?无意识工作作为一种解释的想法是如此吸引人,以至于即使在阅读了这篇明确指出无意识工作是基于没有明确理论和明确经验证据的幻想的论文之后,一些读者会声称我们说的是相反的。在这里,我们解释了为什么无意识工作的想象模因如此难以从科学文献中根除,包括没有明确可测试的无意识工作理论这一事实。因为缺乏一个真正可测试的理论是使这个模因如此不可靠的原因之一,我们提出了一个可测试的无意识工作理论,自主无意识思维操作(AUTO)理论,该理论指出,随着时间的推移,自主无意识操作是无意识工作的一个基本特征。我们描述了这种理论的一些要求,并提出了AUTO理论的实证检验。我们预测无意识操作的自主性将被经验证伪。不需要无意识工作的机制来解释所谓的“孵化”效应,因为有几个可测试的(和经过验证的)解释,作为从固定问题中休息的功能,如多次忘记有意识的工作,忘记固定的反应,思维走神,或设置转移。

ABSTRACT Existing research has consistently supported a relationship between creative achievement and specific personality traits (e.g. openness to experience). However, such work has largely focused on univariate associations, potentially obscuring complex interactions among multiple personality factors, rendering an incomplete picture of the creative personality. We applied a psychometric network approach to characterize the multidimensional personality structure of highly creative individuals in the arts (“artists”) and sciences (“scientists”), using data from three samples (N = 4,015): college students, a representative adult sample, and the Big-C project of eminent creative professionals. Replicating past work, we found that artists showed reliably higher levels of openness to experience compared to scientists and a control group of less creative people. Psychometric network analysis revealed that artists were characterized by higher connectivity (i.e. co-occurrence) with other personality traits for openness, indicating that openness may be more heterogeneous in how it co-occurs with other personality traits in highly creative people. Across all three samples, we found that the scientists’ personality network structure was more cohesive than the personality network of artists and the control group, indicating greater homogeneity in the personality characteristics of scientists. Our findings uncover a constellation of traits that give rise to creative achievement in the arts and sciences.
摘要现有研究一直支持创造性成就与特定人格特征(如对经验的开放性)之间的关系。然而,这类工作主要集中在单变量关联上,可能会掩盖多种人格因素之间的复杂互动,从而呈现出创造性人格的不完整画面。我们应用心理测量网络方法来表征艺术(“艺术家”)和科学(“科学家”)中高度创造性个人的多维人格结构,使用来自三个样本的数据(N = 4015):大学生,具有代表性的成人样本,以及杰出创意专业人士的Big-C项目。复制过去的作品,我们发现,与科学家和创造力较低的对照组相比,艺术家表现出了更高的体验开放度。心理测量网络分析显示,艺术家与其他人格特征的开放性具有更高的连接性(即共现性),这表明在高度创造性的人中,开放性与其他人格特质的共现性可能更为异质。在所有三个样本中,我们发现科学家的人格网络结构比艺术家和对照组的人格网络更有凝聚力,这表明科学家的人格特征具有更大的同质性。我们的发现揭示了在艺术和科学领域产生创造性成就的一系列特征。

Children’s Imagination of the Divine: Creativity Across Religions 儿童对神的想象:跨宗教的创造力

ABSTRACT Earlier studies have concluded that the religious sphere is less open to creativity than are other areas of human activities. Also, it has been suggested that artistic freedom and creative expression are unwelcome in the domain of religious iconography. In the present study, we address this subject with regard to children’s artistic expression of the divine (n = 1703) in five different cultural and religious environments: Japanese (Buddhism and Shinto), Iranian (Islam), Russian-Buryat (Buddhism, shamanism), Russian Slavic (Christian Orthodoxy) and French-speaking Swiss (Catholic and reformed Christianity). The Consensual Assessment Technique was used to access the creativity. The results globally supported the previous research on the positive role that domain knowledge plays in creativity. It is likely that the exposure to knowledge in the religious domain through education would not negatively impact on children’s creativity in the domain of pictorial representations of the divine, at least in secularized societies. Results also revealed that a child’s creative expression could be a function of his or her age. Obviously, with age and knowledge of the religious domain, older children would go more often beyond the simplistic or conventional representations of the divine. As for gender, no effect was found in four out of five samples.
早期的研究已经得出结论,宗教领域对创造力的开放程度低于人类活动的其他领域。此外,有人认为艺术自由和创造性表达在宗教肖像领域是不受欢迎的。在本研究中,我们讨论了在五种不同的文化和宗教环境下儿童对神的艺术表现(n = 1703):日本(佛教和神道教),伊朗(伊斯兰教),俄罗斯-布里亚特(佛教,萨满教),俄罗斯斯拉夫(东正教)和法语瑞士(天主教和改革基督教)。使用共识评估技术来获取创造力。这一结果在全球范围内支持了先前关于领域知识对创造力的积极作用的研究。至少在世俗化的社会中,通过教育接触宗教领域的知识可能不会对儿童在神的绘画表现领域的创造力产生负面影响。研究结果还显示,孩子的创造性表达能力可能与年龄有关。显然,随着年龄的增长和对宗教领域的了解,年龄较大的孩子往往会超越简单或传统的神的表现。至于性别,5个样本中有4个没有发现影响。

ABSTRACT An underexplored aspect of the relationship between analogical reasoning and creativity is its phenomenology; in particular, the notion that analogical reasoning is related to insight and its associated “aha!” experience. However, the relationship between these phenomena has never been directly investigated. We adapted a set of verbal analogy stimuli for use as an insight task. Across the two experiments, participants reported stronger aha moments and greater representational change when reasoning about analogies with greater internal semantic distance, relative to those with greater internal semantic consistency. Aha strength increased linearly with changes in participants’ verbal descriptions of the analogy over the course of each trial, indicating that aha experiences accompany changes in mental representation. The relationship between subjective difficulty and aha strength followed an inverted U-shaped function, with aha strength increasing with greater difficulty but dropping at the highest levels. A similar pattern was observed for the relationship between confidence and aha strength. Furthermore, participants in a more positive mood rated aha experiences as stronger. These findings provide evidence that analogical reasoning can give rise to the phenomenology of insight by triggering representational change and suggest that the affective consequences of relational reasoning may play an important role in promoting creative cognition.
类比推理和创造力之间关系的一个未被充分探索的方面是它的现象学;特别是,类比推理与洞察力及其相关的“啊哈!”经验有关的概念。然而,这些现象之间的关系从未被直接调查过。我们调整了一组言语类比刺激,用作洞察任务。在这两个实验中,与内部语义一致性更强的类比相比,参与者在推理内部语义距离更大的类比时,报告了更强的aha矩和更大的表征变化。在每次试验过程中,Aha强度随着参与者对类比的口头描述的变化而线性增加,这表明Aha体验伴随着心理表征的变化。主观难度和aha强度之间的关系遵循倒U型函数,aha强度随着难度的增加而增加,但在最高水平上下降。置信度和aha强度之间的关系也观察到了类似的模式。此外,情绪更积极的参与者认为aha体验更强烈。这些发现提供了证据,证明类比推理可以通过触发表征变化来引发洞察现象学,并表明关系推理的情感后果可能在促进创造性认知方面发挥重要作用。

ABSTRACT Much modern laboratory research on creative thinking, or in vitro research, is based on the “remote-associates” perspective, which assumes that creative advances arise through bringing together ideas which were previously “remotely associated,” that is, not directly linked. That view has provided the foundation for modern theorizing across a broad range of areas, including the role of associative processes in creativity, divergent thinking in creativity, attention in creativity, genius and madness, and the neuroscience of creativity. However, contrary to the remote-associates view, analyses of real-life – in vivo – creative thinking indicate that new ideas arose as variations on or extensions of old ideas, rather than through bringing together unrelated ideas in a far-ranging creative leap. This conflict between the in vitro and in vivo perspectives has resulted in a theoretical quandary for creativity studies – a “creativity quandary.” This article examines that quandary. The first section demonstrates the wide reach of the remote-associates view in laboratory research on creativity. The second section examines in vivo creative advances that raise questions for the remote-associates view. The third section presents an alternative conception of creative thinking, based on executive functioning, as a potential resolution of the creativity quandary. Similarities and differences between the present proposal and other recent theoretical analyses of creative thinking are discussed.
摘要许多关于创造性思维的现代实验室研究,或体外研究,都是基于“远程伙伴”的观点,该观点认为,创造性进步是通过将以前“远程关联”的想法(即没有直接联系的想法)结合在一起而产生的。这一观点为广泛领域的现代理论奠定了基础,包括联想过程在创造力中的作用、发散思维在创造力中、注意力在创造力、天才和疯狂以及创造力的神经科学。然而,与远程同事的观点相反,对现实生活中——在体内——创造性思维的分析表明,新想法是作为旧想法的变体或扩展而产生的,而不是通过将不相关的想法放在一起进行广泛的创造性飞跃。这种体外和体内视角之间的冲突导致了创造力研究的理论困境——“创造力困境”。本文探讨了这种困境。第一部分展示了远程同事观在创造力实验室研究中的广泛应用。第二部分考察了对远程同事观点提出问题的体内创造性进展。第三部分提出了一个基于执行功能的创造性思维的替代概念,作为解决创造性困境的潜在方法。讨论了本建议与其他最近关于创造性思维的理论分析之间的异同。
