Understanding the mechanisms of insight problem solving using new Italian language tests

University of Milano Bicocca, in collaboration with Northwestern University (IL), recently published on Behavior Research Methods (link all’articolo) the first Italian version of two sets of problems (Compound Remote Associates problems and Rebus Puzzles) that allow to study insight problem solving and creative thinking with neuroscientific techniques (EEG, fMRI etc). Hoping to encourage this line of research, in Italy as in other countries of the world, these two sets of problems are now available to researchers who wish to study creativity.
