My research is examining the relationship between language switching frequency and creative thinking.
I am looking into creative thinking performances within two bilingual groups (Korean-English and Japanese-English). I'm trying to find a control that can match my participant's executive functioning so that I make sure the performances on creative thinking is due to the language switching frequency variable not because of enhanced executive functioning.
Background info: Studies have found that bilingual people have more enhances executive functioning, and that executive functioning could impact the performance on creativity.
I found the Verbal fluency test because it is very short and convenient to implement through the Qualtrics Software. This is where you would ask participants to come up with as many words as possible if I give them a letter. However, I realized that the tip-of-tongue phenomenon might interfere with their performance because it is more relevant for bilingual participants. Does anyone know how I could solve that issue or would it still be okay to use if its not as significant?
I want to find a short executive functioning test that takes less than 10 min because of the time restriction I have for my study.
