執行功能在互動情境下創造性問題解決之調節效果：行為、大腦結構及其可塑性觀點

This project investigates how the individual creative performance with varying levels of creative thinking ability in interactive contexts is influenced by affective traits, cognitive functions, and neural structures associated with executive function. By integrating behavioral experimentation, cognitive neuroscience, and learning technology approaches, the project examines how these factors moderate individual creative problem-solving performance in collaborative situations. Study 1 explored whether creative tendency moderates the relationship between individual creativity in single and paired conditions. Study 2 examined the moderating role of executive function in the relationship between divergent thinking performance across individual and paired settings. Study 3 investigated how central executive network connectivity influences individual creative problem-solving in both contexts. Study 4 focused on the moderating effect of node efficiency in executive-function-related brain regions on the relationship between divergent thinking and performance on the Chinese Component Remote Association Test across individual and paired conditions. Study 5 assessed the influences of creativity training on the plasticity of divergent thinking and structural brain network connectivity in interactive contexts. Taken together, this project explores the influence of executive function on both open-ended and closed-ended creative problem-solving performance from behavioral, neural, and neuro-plasticity perspectives. By bridging individual- and group-level theories of creativity, the research aims to construct a theoretical model of individual creative performance in interactive contexts. Ultimately, this model seeks to deepen understanding of how creativity manifests within collaborative environments and to inform the design of educational and training practices that foster creative potential in both individuals and teams.
