Creative problem solving: thinking outside the boundary limits, and innovatively to solve a problem. Dealing with uncertain and unpredictable work situations : able to become productive despite the occurrence of unknown situations.
Classic experts are defined as being efficient when solving problems that are routine. When presented with a problem that is not routine, or when transferring into a different situation, the adaptive expert may innovate. Schwartz, Bransford and Sears [4] have graphically illustrated these two dimensions of expertise. On the horizontal axis ...
Adaptive reasoning may also refer to the adaptation of thought processes, problem solving strategies, and conceptual framework, in response and anticipation of the changing nature of the problem being considered.
In the life sciences the term adaptability is used variously. At one end of the spectrum, the ordinary meaning of the word suffices for understanding. At the other end, there is the term as introduced by Conrad, [3] referring to a particular information entropy measure of the biota of an ecosystem, or of any subsystem of the biota, such as a population of a single species, a single individual ...
Creativity is important when it comes to solving different problems when presented. [45] Creative thinking works best for problems that can have multiple solutions to solve the problem. It is also used when there seems to be no correct answer that applies to every situation, and is instead based from situation to situation.
Cognitive flexibility should not be confused with psychological flexibility, which is the ability to adapt to situational demands, to balance life demands and to commit to behaviors by thinking about problems and tasks in novel, creative ways (for example by changing a stance or commitment when unexpected events occur).

Social problem-solving, in its most basic form, is defined as problem solving as it occurs in the natural environment. [1] More specifically it refers to the cognitive-behavioral process in which one works to find adaptive ways of coping with everyday situations that are considered problematic.
