A phenomenological analysis of the experience of analogical thinking in graphic design elaborations
Mohd Hafnidzam Adzmi1, Zahari Ishak2, Che Aleha Ladin3.
Analogical thinking is one of the thinking processes that is associated with creativity. This
paper explores how it is experienced in Graphic Design elaborations using Computer Graphic
Technology (CGT). Data are collected through concurrent and retrospective probing from three
undergraduates and analysed through phenomenological reduction to identify the constituents and
elements of the creative analogy's general psychological structure. The findings show that the general
structure of the creative analogical experience is a relationship between three constituents namely 1)
the experience of recalling knowledge or information, 2) the use of knowledge for ideation and 3) the
use of knowledge to conclude ideas. The findings also show that the underlying elements of these
constituents are conceptual(declarative) and technical(procedural) knowledge and its combinations that
are consistent with the theories of analogical thinking. This article concludes with recommendations for
future research and insights on its implementation in Design Education.
