Problem Solving
Problem Solving in Class 11 Psychology explores how people identify, represent, and resolve problems as a key part of thinking. Students learn to distinguish well-defined and ill-defined problems, set goals, break complex tasks into manageable steps, and choose strategies such as algorithms, heuristics, and insight. The topic also examines mental set, functional fixedness, prior knowledge, and other factors that can support or obstruct effective solutions, along with evaluating whether a solution truly meets the goal.
