Creativity in Education and Neuroscience

The Artists' Brain: A Data Fusion Approach to Characterize the Neural Bases of Professional Visual Artists

This study identifies neural differences between professional visual artists and controls using multimodal neuroimaging data, finding a joint component associated with structural and functional adaptations linked to creativity.

Neural Dynamics During the Generation and Evaluation of Creative and Non-Creative Ideas

This study examines neural dynamics during the generation and evaluation of creative and non-creative ideas using functional MRI and network neuroscience methods, finding higher network reconfiguration during creative idea generation.

The human reward system encodes the subjective value of ideas during creative thinking

The paper shows that the human reward system encodes subjective values of ideas during creative thinking, linking these values to individual preferences and creative abilities.

Do not let the beginning trap you! On inhibition, associative creative chains, and hopfield neural networks

The paper demonstrates how Hopfield Neural Networks can be modified to model creative thinking by establishing associative links between ideas through pattern storage and retrieval.

Time course of EEG power during creative problem-solving with insight or remote thinking

This study examines EEG power changes during creative problem-solving, finding specific brain activity patterns linked to semantic remoteness and insight moments.

How subjective idea valuation energizes and guides creative idea generation

This study shows how individual preferences for ideas influence creative generation speed and quality through computational modeling and behavioral experiments.

Creativity in Verbal Associations is Linked to Semantic Control

The paper investigates how semantic control relates to creativity in verbal associations by analyzing neural networks involved in retrieving strongly and weakly related word pairs.

Brain connectivity-based prediction of real-life creativity is mediated by semantic memory structure

This study links brain functional connectivity to semantic memory structure and real-life creativity using connectome-based predictive modeling.

Spontaneous and deliberate modes of creativity: Multitask eigen-connectivity analysis captures latent cognitive modes during creative thinking

The paper uses multitask eigen-connectivity analysis to identify latent cognitive modes during creative thinking, showing that both deliberate and spontaneous thinking contribute to creativity.

The neural basis of creative production: A cross-modal ALE meta-analysis

This paper uses ALE meta-analysis to compare domain-specific and domain-general mechanisms in creativity by analyzing motoric and divergent thinking tasks.

Paternal Indifference and neglect in early life and Creativity: Exploring the Moderating Role of TPH1 genotype and Offspring’s Gender

The paper examines how paternal neglect, TPH1 genotype, and offspring gender interact to influence creativity in Chinese undergraduates.

The Dynamics of Resting-State Alpha Oscillations Predict Individual Differences in Creativity

This study shows that lower temporal correlations in resting-state alpha oscillations correlate with higher creativity scores in healthy adults.

A Neuroeconomic Framework for Creative Cognition

This paper introduces a neuroeconomic framework that links value-based decision-making and LC-NE system activity to creative cognition, offering falsifiable hypotheses about brain network dynamics.
