Thls study was designed to lnvestigate differences in

divergent

production performance among students who were involved in a

brainstorming

sesslon r,rhlle ineubatlng and subJects who only incubated. Effeets of

the

treatments !'Iere assessed by subJect6f responses on a written problem

solving

inventory.

Anal-ysls of variance indicated that the performance of subjects

who

rrrere tralned in dlvergent productior, i.e., brainsLorming, was

greater

thal that of subjects who were not tralned ln divergent production.

The

incubation treatment, however, dld not seem to influence

subjectsr

divergent production scores

significantly.

New directions are proposed to study effects of various

attributes

of incubatlon as compared …
