33. Creating Novelty

To be creative, behavior must be novel, i.e., it must depart in varying degrees from the trite and normative; and it must be appropriate, i.e., anchored to the reality of the situation. Two different studies - key concepts = novel & appropriate - the same results) (1) a role playing study (Harvey, O. J., Wyer, R. S. & Hautaluoma, J. E. Some cognitive and affective determinants of differentiation and integration. Technical Report No. 8, Contract Nonr. 1147(07), University of Colorado, 1963) (2) a study on concept formation and attainment. (Felknor, C. & Harvey, O. J. Some cognitive determinants of concept formation and concept attainment. Technical Report No. 10, Contract Nonr. 1147(07), University of Colorado, 1964)

34. Maintenance of Belief When Confronted with Deviant Input

Studies conducted in which the subjects had to maintain their beliefs when confronted with opposing beliefs [deviant inputs]. (1st) - Harvey, O. J. Some cognitive determinants of influencibility. Sociometry, 1964, 27, 208-221, [system differences in dependency on external cues in judgments of a series of stimuli] (2nd)- Harvey, O. J. Some situational and cognitive determinants of dissonance resolution, J. Pers. Soc. Psychol., 1965, 1, 349-355.) [degrees of system openness or closedness in relation to alien inputs as seen in toleration of dissonance.]
