近来,人们了解到发现常常出现于思想放松,而不是在审慎地集中注意于技术问题的时候。本文的目的在于探讨放松的心理状态、幻想、睡眠和梦在科学创新过程中的地位和重要性。要注意,精神状态的高度集中、思想放松、半醒、作梦和睡眠之间未必总是有一个截然分开的界限的。事实上,不同的精神状态有助于灵感的彼此交搭。 Recently, it has been learned that discovery often occurs when the mind relaxes, not when it focuses prudently on technical issues. The purpose of this article is to explore the status and importance of relaxed mental states, fantasies, sleep and dreams in the process of scientific innovation. It should be noted that mental states are highly concentrated, mind relaxed, half awake, dreaming and sleeping may not always have a completely separate line. In fact, different mental states help to inspire each other.
