Abstract
This paper deals with the investigation of the brain organization of verbal creativity. Psychological tasks were designed in accordance with two main strategies used by volunteers in solving creative tasks. Regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) was measured with positron emission tomography (PET) when performing two types of creative tasks in two groups of subjects, each type of the task organizing the creativity process in its own way. Valuable brain correlates of creativity were revealed in the left parieto-temporal regions (Brodmann areas 39 and 40). Copyright 2004 Elsevier B.V.Mesh:
