Answer to Question 1

Answer: TRUE
Explanation: Creative problem solving involves four steps: preparation, incubation, illumination, and verification. The primary difference between creative and noncreative problem solvers is how they approach this first step, which includes problem definition and alternative generation, in addition to data gathering and information analysis.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: TRUE
Explanation: This bias is partially a cultural bias and partially a personal one. In western cultures, there is a bias against thinking that uses the right hemisphere of the brain (intuition, synthesis, qualitative judgment) in favor of logical, left-brained thinking. However, numerous researchers have found that creative problem solvers employ ambidextrous thinking.
