Abstract
This paper discusses the use of statistical inferences in creative thinking and problem solving. It forms a subset of the larger work on developing a university-wide course on Creative Thinking and Problem Solving. The conventional works on creative thinking, critical thinking, constructive thinking, and problem solving rely primarily on techniques used in disciplines such language and logic. The work presented in this paper offers the use of statistical concepts and methods as meaningful components for creative thinking and problem solving activities.
