Atomization Processing Process

As we expand our knowledge of decision making the one thing that is constant is change. With change comes novelty and complexity as to how we deal with situations. We have been taught not to look at these problems one-dimensionally, but to approach them with our performance and knowledge acquisition components. Leveraging the use of our executive or meta-component process to plan, monitor, and reevaluate our approach to a problem. As humans, we can use our intelligence to deal with the novelty of issues that fall on us and make decisions accordingly.
However, as we deal with novelty, we can use another mental process besides context and insight to help us with these issues. We can use creativity to as an additional mental process. Sternberg

Sternberg states that we go through a process of automatization, in which we move lower level information processing to an automated state, like reading. What this allows us to do is be able to have more of our higher functions focusing on our surroundings. Atomization processing comes in two forms; controlled processing is first, which is slow, one step at a time, effortful, under mindful control, limited by short-term memory, and requires little training. The second is automatic processing, which is fast, different operations can happen at once, effortless, not limited by short-term memory, for the most part, subconscious, and requires much practice. If we become proficient at atomization, this will leave more mental capacity to put toward our complex problems and think of creative ways to approach, view, and decide the best path to resolve our issues. There are steps we can take to become better at automatization; we can be consistent with how we process information. Devote our full attention to the task at hand; distractions take away from our focus. We should push ourselves and work faster on tasks as we learn to automatize. Being motivated can improve our automation process. These were some of the things we can do to increase our ability to automatize our processing skills. What we can learn and understand as we increase our intelligence is that besides knowing the components of intelligence. Sternberg, argues that an individuals experience dealing with situations and tasks is an important part of our mental processing skills, and knowing how to work with novelty and automatizing data and gaining more experience with problem-solving is all part of our
