ABSTRACT
Impact of Cognitive Flexibility on Divergent Thinking of Undergraduate Students was examined in the present research. A random sample comprised of 120 Undergraduate Students selected from the colleges of Agra, Firozabad, and Mathura. The age range of the Students was between 18 to 25 years. Cognitive Flexibility Scale by Martin and Rubin (1995) and Items from the Alternative Uses Task designed by Guilford (1967) measuring the divergent thinking is used. Results indicate a significant impact of Cognitive Flexibility (F value =7.15) on Divergent Thinking of Undergraduate Students. The F value =14.87 for Rural and Urban areas on Divergent Thinking of Undergraduate Students which means there is significant impact of areas on Divergent Thinking.
