Explore how people think through problems and uncover common thinking patterns to learn how the mind approaches reasoning, estimation, and solutions in real tasks.
This nonfiction study examines how high school pupils and university students approach problem solving. Through tests and recorded thinking, it seeks to identify general patterns in the thinking process rather than just correct answers. The work focuses on factors like how problems are read, how data is recognized, and how estimates are formed, with an emphasis on the thinking process itself.
- How readers interpret problems and decide what data matters
- The choice between algebraic and logical approaches
- How general ideas are developed and transferred to new problems
- What these patterns imply for teaching and evaluating thinking
Ideal for educators, students, and readers interested in how thinking works and how to teach it more effectively.

Excerpt from Patterns of Thinking in Solving Problems
The study reported in this monograph is concerned with the mental operations of a group of. Subjects during the process of solving a prob lem. The method is primarily Observational and analytical. The aim is to obtain evidence of individual patterns of thinking of a kind that will permit objective descriptions. The study is not experimental; it is not a comparison of controlled groups; it does not assume that the sample of subjects studied is typical of the general population. The purposes are, first, to develop a technique by which patterns of thinking may be compared objectively, and second, to add to the sum of knowledge regarding the nature of the problem-solving process. It is hoped that the findings will be of value to the schools in their attempt to teach.
