Cognitive inflexibility and the development and use of strategies for solving complex dynamic problems: effects of different types of training

Abstract

Performance in dynamic complex problem tasks is affected by cognitive inflexibility, whereby people are sometimes unable to adapt their strategies to unexpected changes in their surroundings. This cognitive inflexibility only affects a person's performance when the environmental changes are relevant to the particular problem-solving strategy that they are using. This paper describes a new methodology to detect cognitive flexibility in the use of strategies and presents an experiment designed to test the hypothesis, proving that the type of training affects cognitive flexibility.
