have a more profound understanding of the solving dynamics so that the success in solving may be foreseen before it is achieved. Hypothetically, a particular kind of behavior, a research behavior, can be defined and studied. If a person shows a research behavior in respect to a class of tasks we could predict the success long before it occurs.
