Wieth's Problem-Solving Research Lands Media Coverage

Research by Mareike Wieth, assistant professor of psychological science at Albion College, has landed coverage in several media outlets including Men’s Health magazine and the British Broadcasting Company World Service. Wieth’s recent study asked 428 students to deem themselves night owls or morning larks then quizzed them on six problem-solving tasks at different times of the day. Early birds quizzed in the p.m. and night owls quizzed in the morning performed the best on insight-based questions that required some original thought.
