Creativity's Neuropsychology

Abstract

Michael Maes

The neuropsychological method has been critical in providing significant discoveries that have allowed for a better understanding of the human mind and its operations. Despite the potential of this technique and the distinct viewpoint it provides, it has only been used in a small number of studies on creative cognition. This paper provides a brief overview of three methodologies used in the neuropsychology of creativity: single case studies, case series investigations on neurological populations and case series investigations on psychiatric populations, as well as highlights some of the key findings from each approach. The goal is to establish a case for the usefulness of the neuropsychological method in gaining a deeper understanding of the creative mind.
