“…From these definitions it can be seen that many puzzles fit the specified conditions of the MOVE category. Three such puzzles have featured prominently in human problem-solving research: The Tower of Hanoi problem (Ewert and Lambert, 1932;Cook, 1937;Gagne'and Smith, 1962;Sweller, 1976;Kotovsky, Hayes and Simon, 1985), The Water-jar problem (Luchins, 1942;Polson, 1976, Sweller andGee, 1978), and the Missionaries and Cannibals problem (Greeno, 1974;Simon and Reed, 1976;Jeffries, Polson, Razran, and Atwood, 1977). CHANGE problems (Greeno, 1978a) tend to be more mathematical in nature, involving formal proofs and highly deductive exercises.…”
