The creative field

Abstract

The article summarizes 35-years experience of use of a method “Creative field”. The author distinguishes two sides of the issue relating to its application by other researchers: lack of understanding the new paradigm of disclosing the creative nature and the principles of its investigation and identification.
The two-layer model of task accomplishment is described, confirming
S.L.Rubinstejn’s idea of thinking as knowledge-absorbing, not simply problem-solving.
The author gives us the principles, which observance is necessary for
implementation of the method. The similarities and differences between the author’s point of view and other domestic scientists’ opinions on the nature of creativity and the “Creative field” method are analyzed in detail.
