"The Three-Process View is a psychological term coined by Janet E. Davidson and Robert Sternberg.According to this concept, there are three kinds of insight: selective-encoding, selective-comparison, and selective-combination.Selective-Encoding Insight - Distinguishing what is important in a problem and what is irrelevant. (i.e. filter) Selective-Comparison Insight - Identifying information by finding a connection between acquired knowledge and experience."@en .
