Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The sudden realization that leads to solving the problem is a characteristic of insight. A cognitive map refers to the mental representation of the spatial layout and is not directly related to this situation. A schema is a mental framework that helps in interpreting information, but it does not directly lead to problem-solving. Observational learning involves learning by observing others, which does not apply in this situation.
