Journal ArticleDOI
Thoughts beyond words : When language overshadows insight
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined whether verbalization can interfere with insight problem solving and found that concurrent, non-directive verbalization impaired the solving of insight problems but had no effect on non-insight problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Constraint relaxation and chunk decomposition in insight problem solving
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors hypothesized that impasses are broken by changing the problem representation, and two hypothetical mechanisms for representational change are described: the relaxation of constraints on the solution and the decomposition of perceptual chunks.
Journal ArticleDOI
An eye movement study of insight problem solving
TL;DR: The present study suggests that eye movement recordings provide an important new window into processes of insight problem solving, providing converging evidence with prior findings using solution rates and solution times.
