A Brain Mechanism for Facilitation of Insight by Positive Affect (2009, positive): “However, they can be solved either analytically or with insight (Bowden & Jung-Beeman, 2003a; for a review, see Bowden et al., 2005).”
Reasoned connections: A dual-process perspective on creative thought (2015, methodology): “The 15 three-word triads, originally drawn from Bowden and Jung-Beeman (2003) and more recently used by Slepian and Ambady (2012), were rated in previous investigations as being moderately difficult and were presented in random order on screen.”
Insight versus analysis: Evidence for diverse methods in problem solving (2013, neutral): “Source: Bowden and Jung-Beeman (2003)”
Neural Activity When People Solve Verbal Problems with Insight (2004, methodology): “As in earlier behavioral work, we used a set of compound remote associate problems ( Bowden and Jung-Beeman 2003b ) adapted from a test of creative cognition (Mednick 1962).”
Convergent Thinking Moderates the Relationship between Divergent Thinking and Scientific Creativity (2019, background): “This task had 22 terms of words (Bowden & Jung-Beeman, 2003).”
Stimulating Creativity: Modulation of Convergent and Divergent Thinking by Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) (2015, methodology): “A well-established paradigm to examine convergent thinking is Mednick’s (1962) Remote Associates Task (RAT) which was later extended to the Compound Remote Associates task (CRA) by Bowden and Jung-Beeman (2003).”
The Cognitive Neuroscience of Creativity: A Critical Review (2011, background): “Solving an RAT triplet requires the simultaneous activation of distant associations, and there is evidence that the right hemisphere is more effective at semantic processing of distant associates (Howard-Jones et al.; Blakemore, Samuel, Summers, & Claxton, 2005; Bowden & Jung-Beeman, 2003a).”
Personality and creativity in realistic, investigative, artistic, social, and enterprising college majors (2013, methodology): “The Compound Remote Associates Task (CRAT) consisted of twelve triads of words taken from Bowden and Jung-Beeman (2003).”
Assessing Associative Distance Among Ideas Elicited by Tests of Divergent Thinking (2014, methodology): “This test is still used with some regularity, and its norms were revised recently (Bowden & Jung-Beeman, 2003).”
Investigating the structure of semantic networks in low and high creative persons (2014, background): “In this test, subjects are presented with a triplet of seemingly unrelated words (e.g., Cottage, Swiss, Cake ) and are required to ﬁnd a single fourth word that is related to each of these words (e.g., Cheese; Bowden and Jung-Beeman, 2003).”
