Insight solutions are correct more often than analytic solutions
Salvi, Bricolo, Kounios, Bowden and Beeman: four experiments (linguistic, visual and two mixed puzzles); self-judged insight solutions were on average more accurate than analytic ones; analytic responses contained relatively more errors of commission than omission. Thinking & Reasoning 22(4), 443-460, 2016.
