a sudden realization: theEureka effect, named afterArchimedes. This is also known as an epiphany.
Higher intelligence (higher IQ) has also been found to be associated with better performance on insight problems.[1] However, those of lower intelligence benefit more than those of higher intelligence from being provided with cues and hints for insight problems.[1]
The definition of insight by sources, is for example: "The fact of penetrating with the eyes of the understanding", "deep", "the power or act of seeing into a situation". The idea of penetration into the psychology of the mind has existed at least since 1927, which is the year Dr. E. Minkowski described the idea of psychiatrists penetrating into the mind of patients for diagnosis. A similar idea also is found in the writing/work/ideas ofDr. C. Jung sometime after 1909, which Dr. E. Bleuler described as "depth psychology".[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]
