Abstract

[In Chap. 4, we analyzed two different types of creative thinking, through examination of processing methods and mental processes, and put forward a mental operation model of incidental creative thinking and intentional creative thinking. Due to the fact that basic human creative activities (be it artistic or science) are the achievements of intentional creative thinking, mental operation model of intentional creative thinking is more direct as an central guide for cultivating creative thinking and innovation talents (generally, the mental operation model of intentional creative thinking is called “creative thinking mental operation model” or “creative thinking mental model”). The processing mode of intentional creative thinking has the feature of jointly non-linear processing. Since the model in education (especially in elementary and middle levels of school education) is of more than general importance, we hope that it will be built on a more solid scientific model, which will stand the test of practice (rather than a model out of a subjective fantasy). To this end, we intend to discuss the theoretical basis of the model from two aspects: psychology and neurophysiology. The underlying psychological theory of intentional creative thinking has already explained in fine details in the previous chapter, so this section will focus on relevant neuropsychological aspects, to further summarize, consolidate, and supplement the discussion of psychological aspects.]
