ABSTRACT

Dynamic, momentary affective states have significant effects on creativity; however, how negative affect modulates the neurocognitive processes involved in creativity is still unclear. This study investigated the neural mechanisms of creative thinking under varying avoidance-motivation intensity. Sixty participants (17 men and 43 women; age range = 18–25 years; mean = 21.22 years, SD = 1.35) randomly assigned to three groups (high-avoidance-motivation, low-avoidance-motivation, and unmotivated bias state) completed creative tasks in two conditions – creative idea generation and creative idea evaluation. In the former condition, the low-avoidance-motivation group exhibited greater fluency of divergent thinking than the high-avoidance-motivation group. Functional near-infrared spectroscopy revealed an interaction effect between creative demand and avoidance-motivation intensity in the bilateral inferior frontal gyrus and right middle frontal gyrus in creative idea generation. In the latter condition, there were no significant differences between the three avoidance motivation groups in behavior and brain activation results. Furthermore, the association of the prefrontal cortex and temporal region in these tasks indicated that these regions may be part of the core mechanism underlying the modulatory effects of avoidance-motivation intensity on ongoing neurocognitive processing during creative thinking.

回避-动机强度在创造性思维中的作用:对创造性想法产生和评估的相似和不同的影响

摘要

动态的、瞬间的情感状态对创造力有显着影响;然而,负面情绪如何调节参与创造力的神经认知过程仍不清楚。本研究调查了不同回避-动机强度下创造性思维的神经机制。60 名参与者(17 名男性和 43 名女性;年龄范围 = 18-25 岁;平均 = 21.22 岁,SD = 1.35)被随机分配到三组(高回避动机、低回避动机和无动机偏见状态)完成两个条件下的创意任务——创意产生和创意评估。在前一种情况下,低回避动机组比高回避动机组表现出更流畅的发散思维。功能性近红外光谱揭示了创意需求与双侧额下回和右额中回在创意产生中的交互作用。在后一种情况下,三个回避动机组在行为和大脑激活结果上没有显着差异。此外,在这些任务中前额叶皮层和颞区的关联表明,这些区域可能是回避动机强度对创造性思维过程中正在进行的神经认知处理的调节作用的核心机制的一部分。三个回避动机组在行为和大脑激活结果上没有显着差异。此外,在这些任务中前额叶皮层和颞区的关联表明,这些区域可能是回避动机强度对创造性思维过程中正在进行的神经认知处理的调节作用的核心机制的一部分。三个回避动机组在行为和大脑激活结果上没有显着差异。此外,在这些任务中前额叶皮层和颞区的关联表明,这些区域可能是回避动机强度对创造性思维过程中正在进行的神经认知处理的调节作用的核心机制的一部分。
