Although mind-wandering and awareness are contrary concepts, both are positively correlated with creative problem solving. To understand this contradiction, we examined how mind-wandering and awareness are related to the three aspects of creativity: fluency, flexibility, and originality. We used psychological scales to measure mind-wandering and awareness, and the Unusual Uses Test to measure the three aspects of creativity. Data from 532 participants (300 male, 228 female, and 4 unknown; Mage=19.67, SD=1.44 years) were analyzed. The results of a multiple regression analysis showed an inverted U-shaped relationship between mind-wandering and uniqueness scores of originality. An ANOVA analysis showed that participants in the medium mind-wandering group scored higher than those in the low mind-wandering group. In contrast, mind-wandering and evaluative scores of originality showed a U-shaped relationship, and participants in the medium mind-wandering group scored lower than those in the low mind-wandering group.

An “incubation period” refers to an individual’s temporary shift away from an unsolved problem, which ultimately facilitates better problem solving. In this study, we experimentally examined whether creative problem solving was facilitated in accordance with the frequency of mind-wandering during an incubation period. Fifty-nine Japanese undergraduate participants (23 men and 36 women) were asked to complete the Unusual Uses Test (UUT) twice; the UUT is a traditional measurement of the various aspects of divergent thinking (including fluency, flexibility, and originality). They were also asked to rate the frequency in which they engaged in mind-wandering during the interval between UUTs, which was considered as the incubation period. The results indicated that participants who reported a higher frequency of mind-wandering during incubation exhibited more creative solutions on the UUT, especially in terms of flexibility and originality, than did those reporting a lower frequency of mind-wandering.

創造性を増進することは社会にとって有用であると考えられるが,しばしば創造性の高い人は精神的に不健康であると指摘されてきた。一方で,近年では創造性が高くても精神的に健康な人の存在も示唆されている。そこで本研究では,創造性と精神的健康の両方と関連深い概念として知られているマインドワンダリングという現象に着目し,創造性の高さや精神的健康さの違いによって,マインドワンダリングの特徴に違いかあるのかを実験的に検討した。まず,62名の参加者の創造性と抑うつ傾向およびワーキングメモリ容量を測定した。その後,思考プローブ法を用いて,映像視聴中のマインドワンダリングの思考内容,自覚の有無,話題数を測定した。分析の結果,創造性が高く精神的に健康な人は,マインドワンダリング中に過去のことを考える頻度が少ないことが示された。本研究の結果は,マインドワンダリングを用いて,精神的健康を維持しつつ創造性を増進するための基礎的知見を示したといえる。

近年,マインドワンダリングに関する研究が盛んに行われている中で,意図的に行うマインドワンダリングと非意図的に生じるマインドワンダリングを区別して扱うことの重要性が強調されている。そこで本研究は,意図的なマインドワンダリング傾向を測定するMind Wandering: Deliberate (MW-D) と非意図的なマインドワンダリング傾向を測定するMind Wandering: Spontaneous (MW-S) の日本語版の尺度を作成し,その信頼性と妥当性を検討することを目的とする。総計357名の大学生を対象に質問紙調査を行い,翻訳した尺度の構造を確認したところ,原版と同様に2因子構造が妥当であることが示された。また,質問紙調査に加えて実験データ(総計N=60名)を用いて信頼性と妥当性の検討を行ったところ,十分な内的整合性と基準関連妥当性が示され,日本語版MW-DとMW-Sが一定の信頼性と妥当性を有することが確認された。

Previous research has shown that mind wandering improves creativity while it may simultaneously lead to mental illness. However, it has also been shown that some kinds of mind wandering are not related to negative mood or mental illness, and such mind wandering seems to improve creativity while maintaining good mental health. Therefore, our study examined what kinds of mind wandering are generated in highly creative people with a high level of mental health, focusing on daily life. Seventy-eight undergraduate and graduate students participated in the study. We measured indicators of creativity and mental health in the experiment room and measured the situation and features of mind wandering using an experience sampling method over three days. Results showed that highly creative people with a high level of mental health do not think much about social-related and future-related thought. In the future, we need to examine whether evoking MW that does not include things about others actually enhances creativity without inhibiting mental health.
