Detailed explanation-1: -An analogy is an abstract parallel between two quite different things. For example, you might analogize driving to project management. In both cases it helps to have a map (i.e., a plan) for where you’re going. When you find one parallel, you can often find others–which is why analogies help with creativity.
Detailed explanation-2: -If you want to persuade a friend to watch a movie you enjoyed, the easiest way to persuade them may be to compare the movie to other movies you know that they’ve watched. Using a comparison between something new and something known is analogical reasoning, where we draw conclusions by comparing two things.
Detailed explanation-3: -Some barriers do not prevent us from finding a solution, but do prevent us from finding the most efficient solution. Four of the most common processes and factors are mental set, functional fixedness, unnecessary constraints and irrelevant information.
Detailed explanation-4: -The basic process of analogical reasoning involves finding a problem (source) that is similar to the problem you need to solve (target) and mapping the solution of that source problem onto the target problem.
