Neurotechnology approaches, such as electroencephalography (EEG), can aid understanding of the cognitive processes behind creativity.
To identify and compare the EEG characteristics of creativity-related cognitive factors (remote association, common association, combination, recall, and retrieval), 30 participants were recruited to conduct an EEG induction study.
From the event-related potential (ERP) results and spectral analysis, the study supports that creativity is related to the frontal lobe areas of the brain and common association is an unconscious process.
The results help explain why some creativity-related cognitive factors are involved either more or less readily than others in the creative design process from workload aspects. This study identifies the part of the brain that is involved in the combination cognitive factor and detects the ERP results on cognitive factors. This study can be used by designers and researchers to further understand the cognitive processes of creativity.
神经技术方法,如脑电图(EEG),有助于理解创造力背后的认知过程。
为了识别和比较与创造力相关的认知因素(远距离联想、普通联想、组合、回忆和检索)的脑电图特征,招募了30名参与者进行脑电图诱发研究。
从事件相关电位(ERP)结果和频谱分析来看,该研究支持创造力与大脑额叶区域相关,且普通联想是一个无意识过程。
研究结果有助于从工作量方面解释为什么某些与创造力相关的认知因素在创意设计过程中比其他因素更容易或更不容易涉及。本研究确定了大脑中参与组合认知因素的部分,并检测了认知因素的ERP结果。设计师和研究人员可以利用本研究进一步理解创造力的认知过程。
