Swiss Hiking Pack
Swiss Hiking Pack
Help with some Psychology Questions?

1. When a young scientist went hiking in the Swiss Alps, he found that the thorny burrs on some plants stuck to his pants and shirt. Rather than dismissing this trivial annoyance, Heinz took the burrs to his lab and analyzed their properties. His work eventually led to the invention of Velcro. This illustrates one aspect of creativity called:
A)algorithmic thinking.
B)problem finding.
C)trial and error approaches.
D)heuristic thinking.

2. Janice forgot to pack a pillow for her camping trip, but used her down-filled jacket as a substitute pillow. This is an example of:
A)overcoming functional fixedness.
B)a creative mental set.
C)using exemplars as an aid to intuitive problem-solving.
D)the availability heuristic.

I honestly can't find these answers in my book so if someone could please guide me with this, I would appreciate it. Thanks.
