Key Terms Explanation Pg.
Alternate uses test 395
Analogical encoding The process by which 2 problems are 384

determined
Analogical paradox While it is difficult to apply analogies in lab 386
research, people routinely use analogies in
real-world settings
Analogical problem Technique of using an analogy 379

Analogy Using the solution to a similar problem to guide 379
solutions of a new problem
Candle problem Example of functional fixedness 368

Intermediate states Condition after each step is made toward 373
solving a problem
Latent inhibition (LI) The capacity to screen out stimuli that are 396

problem
Structural features The underlying principle that governs the 383
solution
Subgoals Small goals that help create intermediate 374
states that are closer to the goal
Surface features 382
Target problem The problem the person is trying to solve 380
Think-aloud protocol Participants are asked to say out loud what 378
they are thinking while solving a problem
Tower of Hanoi problem 372
Two-string problem Example of functional fixedness 369
Water jug problem Example of how mental set can arise out of the 370
problem-solving situation itself
What Is A Problem?
A problem occurs when there is an obstacle between a present state and a
goal
Not immediately obvious how to get around it
The Gestalt Approach: Problem Solving as Representation and Restructuring
Problem solving was about how people represent a problem in their mind and
how solving a problem involves a reorganisation or restructuring of this
representation
Representing a Problem In the Mind:
How problems are represented in the mind is different for different people
Success in solving a problem is influenced by how it is represented in the
person’s mind
The circle problem – pg. 364
Restructuring – the process of changing the problem’s representation
