From this perspective, research on creative thinking is important because it is responsible for new and unique approaches to solving emerging tasks.

In the framework of the procedural approach to creativity, when thinking is considered as a creative process, unlike other mental processes, researchers have come to the conclusion that for the process of solving the creative task, the main thing is not finding the solution as an independent formulation of the problem, the task. It is defined that the central link of creativity is divergent, unconventional thinking, able to go beyond the standard, aimed at searching and finds several solutions to the problem, trying to "glance" in a new way on already known.
