Abstract:<p>This study examined the mechanisms of mental set (Einstellung effect) formation. Earlier it was shown that executive functions are a system-forming element in the structure of the formation mental set mechanisms. Executive functions (shifting, updating, inhibition) are considered as possible mechanisms for the formation of mental set. Additional load on executive functions should influence the formation of mental set. To model mental set, adapted Lachins’ problems of two types were used &… Show more
