Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Creative thinking involves generating multiple ideas through divergent thinking, but simply generating ideas is not enough. The creative person also brings reasoning and critical thinking into the creative process to evaluate and select the best ideas. Convergent thinking, which involves narrowing down ideas and finding the best solution, is also utilized. Mechanical processing is not typically associated with the creative process.
