据说,阿基米德、牛顿和爱因斯坦都是在干其他事情的时候得到了科学灵感。这其中的心理学机理一直不甚清楚。现在有研究显示,仅仅是休息一下不能带来灵感,创意是由能让思维信马由缰的任务推动的。被一个问题难住了,然后千其他事的时候突然来了灵感?这种情况常有发生,而其中的心理学机理一直不甚清楚。美国加州大学圣巴巴拉分校心理学家贝尔德和斯库勒对此进行了研究,145名本科学生被分成4组做测试,在2分钟内列出牙签、衣架和毛巾等日常用品尽可能多的用途。2分钟过后,有3组学生们获得了12分钟的间歇,这段时间内学生们或是休息,或者参与一个需要全神贯注的记忆任务,或进行一个要求不高的反应时间测试(已知可以引发走神)。还有一个组则不做休息。之后学生们再次被要求进行
It is said that Archimedes, Newton and Einstein received scientific inspiration when doing other things. One of the psychological mechanisms has not been clear. Now research shows that just taking a break does not inspire creativity, driven by the quest to make your mind run. Inspired by a problem, and then suddenly inspired by something else? This is a common occurrence, and the underlying psychological mechanisms are not well understood. Baird and Schuller, a psychologist at the University of California, Santa Barbara, conducted a study of 145 undergraduates who were divided into four groups to do their tests, listing toothpicks, hangers, towels and other everyday items in as little as two minutes the use of. After 2 minutes, 3 groups of students received a 12-minute interval during which time the students either rested or engaged in a memory-intensive task or performed a less demanding reaction time test (known to trigger Distracted). There is another group that does not rest. After that the students were asked again
