Derived from the psychometric tradition of creativity research, divergent thinking (DT) tests are major instrument for measuring people's creative potential. Although still prevalent, DT testing has received substantial criticism its validity and practical value. This article focuses on issue how to reliably validly assess predict real-world Based reviews literatures concept creativity, process, approach, tests, we examine 6 weaknesses traditional instruments: lack construct validity; not...

The present study evaluated whether recent theoretical advances regarding cognitive coding render a translation-based account viable for orthogonal stimulus-response arangements

Most studies that examined the precuing of motor responses have been interpreted as indicating response specification is a variable-order process. An apparent exception to this conclusion was obtained by Miller (1982) for preparation discrete finger responses. Precuing beneficial only when precued were on same hand, suggesting occurs in fixed order, with hand specified before other aspects response. Three experiments discrepant finding Experiment 1 demonstrated sufficient time (3 s), all...

Reaction time is often shorter when the irrelevant graspable handle of an object corresponds with location a keypress response to relevant attribute than it does not. This object-based Simon effect has been attributed affordance for grasping hand same side. Because should differentially affect responses only they are made different hands, we conducted three experiments that measured frying pan stimuli using between- and within-hand sets. When stimulus dimension was color, neither nor...
