Cognitive (认识派的) researchers, who study various aspects of mental life, maintain that rewards often destroy creativity by encouraging dependence on 43 and gifts from others.

But the careful use of small 45 rewards speaks creativity in grade school children, suggesting that properly presented inducements indeed 46 inventiveness, according to a study in the June Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.
