Recent research has shownthat messy desks, walking, and mind-wandering can lead tomore new uses for old objects. Here we show that a human-centric mindset is superior to mind-wandering for generatingmore alternative uses and more creative uses because itprovides both release from fixation and an effective searchstrategy.
