Hypotheses
1. Participants would exhibit more mind wandering in an interpolated
undemanding task than in an interpolated demanding task.
2. The creative benefits of incubation would be greater for
participants who engaged in the undemanding task than for
participants who engaged in the demanding task.
3. [Hypothesis 2] effect would not be attributable to a greater number
of explicit thoughts about the previously encountered problems.
4. Performance would selectively improve on repeated-exposure
problems following the undemanding task which would indicate that
the performance improvement resulted from an incubation process
rather than a general increase in creative problem solving.
