Silvia, Paul J.; Christensen, Alexander P.; Cotter, Katherine N. – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2016
A major question for research on the development of creativity is whether it is interested in "creative potential" (a prospective approach that uses measures early in life to predict adult creativity) or in children's creativity for its own sake. We suggest that a focus on potential for future creativity diminishes the fascinating…

The ability to create requires problem-finding as well as problem-solving. It requires practice. Best practice involves the emulation of creative people and…

Beghetto, Ronald A. – Journal of Cognitive Education and Psychology, 2016
That creativity can play a role in learning seems clear.

Sadler-Smith, Eugene – Creativity Research Journal, 2015
Based on a detailed reading of Graham Wallas' "Art of Thought" (1926) it is argued that his four-stage model of the creative process (Preparation, Incubation, Illumination, Verification), in spite of holding sway as a conceptual anchor for many creativity researchers, does not reflect accurately Wallas' full account of the creative…
