In the classic study of using analogies to aid in problems, Gick and Holyoak (1983) found that only one condition was successful in triggering participants to notice and successfully apply an analogy. Which condition was it?
 
  a) The condition in which they were given a diagram of the source problem.
   b) The condition in which they were given two source problems and had to map out their relationship.
   c) The condition in which they were given a source problem and a statement of the underlying general principle.
   d) None of the analogy conditions was better than just presenting the participants with the target problem alone.

Question 2

Research on the ability to see and apply analogies between the radiation problem (tumor problem) and the attack problem indicates that:
 
  a) people commonly miss the analogy with or without a hint.
   b) people easily see the connection between the problems, and use it to solve the second one.
   c) people rarely see the connection between the problems unless they're given a hint; then, they usually do make the connection.
   d) analogies only work with complex problems, not simple ones.
