Ep.14. Can Inner Speech Shape the Creative Process?

"Inner Speaking and Uncertainty during Idea Generation" by Alwin De Rooij (2023) This research paper examines the role of inner speaking, or the internal verbalisations we make to ourselves, in the creative idea generation process. The author argues that certainty about the potential of information for generating original and useful ideas influences the types of inner speech we use, particularly self-reinforcement, self-management, and social assessment, which in turn affect the perceived originality and usefulness of the ideas generated. The study, conducted with a large sample of students, uses an experimental design to explore these relationships.
