  • Abstract
    Mental fixation in product design is proved by experiment. In experiment, three groups of participants are given same design task and different example design. The experiment results show that many features of the example design are incorporated into the designs generated by each group, which proves the existence of mental fixation in product design. The possible cognitive mechanisms causing mental fixation are also discussed.
