Chapter Six - How Working Memory Capacity Affects Problem Solving (2012, background): “In a more recent study, Gilhooly and Murphy (2005) found that a Figural Fluency task uniquely predicted performance on a set of insight problems in a regression that also included the RPM and Span measures.”
Does insight problem solving predict real-world creativity? (2014, methodology): “For example, insight problem solving correlates with divergent thinking fluency and intelligence (Gilhooly & Murphy, 2005).”
Opening up Openness to Experience: A Four-Factor Model and Relations to Creative Achievement in the Arts and Sciences. (2013, unknown): “…explaining cognitive, personality, and social processes (e.g., Allen & Thomas, 2011; Epstein, 1994, 2003; Evans, 2008, 2010; Evans & Frankish, 2009; Gilhooly & Murphy, 2005; Gilhooly & Fioratou, 2009; Kahneman, 2011; Kahneman & Frederick, 2002, 2005; Lieberman, 2003, 2007; Lin & Lien, 2013;…”
Explanations in the wild. (2021, unknown): “Further, insight, the strongest predictor of satisfaction in Study 2, involves finding a relevant representation of a problem (Durso et al., 1994; Gilhooly & Murphy, 2005).”
A Dual Process Account of Creative Thinking (2011, methodology): “17 Gilhooly and Murphy (2005) investigated if problems that require insight were solved more easily by people who scored higher on tests of working memory and executive function, which the authors used as an indirect measure of type 2 thinking.”
A Brain Mechanism for Facilitation of Insight by Positive Affect (2009, background): “People can solve problems through methodical, analytic processing, through insight, or through some mix of both (for recent reviews, see Bowden, Jung-Beeman, Fleck, & Kounios, 2005; Gilhooly & Murphy, 2005).”
Executive functions in insight versus non-insight problem solving: An individual differences approach (2009, background): “…further behavioural evidence in support of empirical distinctions between insight and non-insight tasks and so add to the differences reported by Metcalfe and Weibe (1987), Schooler et al. (1993), Jung-Beeman et al. (2004), Murray and Byrne (2005), Gilhooly and Murphy (2005), and Fleck (2008).”
The Different Role of Working Memory in Open-Ended Versus Closed-Ended Creative Problem Solving: A Dual-Process Theory Account (2013, methodology): “…between performance in traditional insight problems and working memory capacity remained unclear; some studies did obtain a positive correlation between these factors (e.g., DeYoung et al., 2008; Fleck, 2008; Gilhooly & Murphy, 2005), whereas some others did not (e.g., Ash & Wiley, 2006).”
Assessing miserly information processing: An expansion of the Cognitive Reflection Test (2014, methodology): “Items #4 and #5 were kindly supplied to us by Shane Frederick in personal correspondence (13 June 2011); item #6 was adapted from Dominowski (1994; see Gilhooly & Murphy, 2005); and the seventh item was created by the authors.”
