Knowles, Martin E.; Delaney, Peter F. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2005
The authors present 3 experiments demonstrating ways to reduce illegal moves in problem-solving tasks. They propose a 3-stage framework for the rejection of illegal moves. An illegal move must come to mind and be selected, checked for legality, and correctly rejected. Illegal move reduction can occur at any stage. Control group participants…
