The goal of many blue-sky idea generation techniques is to generate a large quantity of ideas with the hope of obtaining a few outstanding, creative ideas that are worth pursuing. As such, a rapid means of screening the resulting sketches to select a manageable set of promising ideas is needed. This study explores a metric for evaluating large quantities of early-stage product sketches and tests the metric through an online service called Mechanical Turk. Reviewers? subjective ratings of idea creativity had a strong correlation with ratings of idea novelty (r 2=0.80), but negligible correlation with idea usefulness (r 2=0.16). The clarity of the sketch positively influenced ratings of idea creativity. Additionally, the quantity of ideas generated by an individual participant had a strong correlation with that participant's overall creativity scores (r 2=0.82). The authors suggest a metric of three attributes to be used as a first pass in narrowing a large pool of product ideas to the most innovative: novel, useful (or valuable), and feasible (as determined by experts).
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic
(which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments.
It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions.
The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager
like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
