The goal of the internship is to investigate the cognitive mechanisms underlying creative idea generation. Creative idea generation can be decomposed into three different components: exploring knowledge, valuating candidate ideas, and selecting a creative idea. The "Exploring knowledge" component will be the one investigated during the internship. The student will have to help in the task design and development, collect and analyze the behavioral data, and interpret the results. This will allow validating the protocol to then use it during a neuroimaging study (fMRI or intraEEG).
