Model of the creative process
The main stages of creativity and creative problem solving
1. Saturation (preparation).
2. Incubation.
3. Illumination (Inspiration).
(H. Helmholtz, 1891, 1896).
1. Random combinations.
2. Selection
(A. Poincare, 1908).
1. Preparation.
2. Incubation (and Intimation).
3. Illumination.
4. Verification.
(G. Wallas, 1926).
Threeact of creativity:
1. Emergence of the idea.
2. Logical design of the idea.
3. Implementation.
(P.K.Engelmeyer, 1910; A.M.Bloh, 1920).
1. Inventing.
2. Examining
(K. Popper, 1934; H. Reichenbach, 1938).
1. Observation of the need.
2. Analysis.
3. A survey.
4. A formulation of all objective solutions.
5. A critical analysis of these solutions.
6. The birth of the new idea.
7. Experimentation selection and perfection.
(J. Rossman, 1931).
Two stages of creative inspiration and elaboration
(Ernst Kris, 1952).
1. Orientation.
2. Preparation.
3. Analysis.
4. Ideation.
5. Incubation.
6. Synthesis.
7. Evaluation.
(A. Osborn, 1953).
1. Fact-finding.
2. Idea-finding.
3. Solution-finding
(A. Osborn, 1963).
1. Variation.

3. Retention.
(D. Cambell, 1960).
Hypotheses generating and their verification
(A.T. Shumilin, 1969).

2. Vision.
3. Intent.
4. Insight.
5. Engineering.
6. Building.
7. Using.
(M. Taylor, Richard Goring, 1979).
1. Accept the situation (as a challenge).
2. Analyze.
3. Define.
4. Ideate.
5. Select.
6. Implement.
7. Evaluate.
(D. Koberg, J. Bagnall, 1981).
1. Random variation.
2. Natural selection.
(D. Campbell, 1960; D.K.Simonton, 1988).
1. Objective finding.
2. Fact-finding.
3. Problem finding.
4. Idea finding.
5. Solution finding.
6. Acceptance finding.
(S. J. Parnes, 1967; S. G., Isaksen, D. J.Treffinger, 1985).
1. Frustration.

4. Bringing up the baby.
(F. Barron, 1988).
1. Conception.
2. Vision.
3. Current reality.
4. Take action.
5. Adjust, learn, evaluate, adjust.
6. Building momentum.
7. Completion
8. Living with your creation
(R. Fritz, 1991).
The Directed Creativity Cycle:
A Synthesis Model of the Creative Process:
1. Preparation (observation, analysis).
2. Imagination (generation, harvesting).
3. Development (enhancement, evolution).
4. Action (implementation, living with it).
(P. E. Plsek, 1996).
1. Preparation.
2. Incubation.
3. Insight.
4. Evaluation.
5. Elaboration.
(M. Czikszentmihalyi, 1996).
1. Clarification.
2. Transformation.
3. Implementation.
(G. J. Puccio, M.C Murdock, M. Mance, 2007).
1. Clarification and identify the problem.
2. Research the problem.
3. Formulation of the creative challenges.
4. Ideas Generation.
5. Combination and evaluation of the ideas.
6. Drawing up an action plan.
7. Implementation of the ideas.
(J. Baumgartner, 2010).
Creativity and Problem Solving as a holistic process, which includes interaction, overlapping and blending of the steps.
(C. Partick, 1937; M. Wertheimer, 1945; J. Hadamar, 1945; J.E.Eidhoven, W.E.Vinacke, 1952; W.E.; Chiselin, 1963; T. Amabile, 1966; J. W. Getzels, M. Czikszentmihalyi, 1976; Т. Lubart, 2003).
