Maykel, Cheryl; Kaufman, James C. – Psychology in the Schools, 2023
The term "creativity" can conjure various ideas and meanings. It's no surprise that methods for measuring such a concept vary widely and are not without controversy.

Glaveanu, Vlad; Kaufman, James C. – Gifted Education International, 2022
What is the aim of giftedness? Is the goal to narrow in on the gifts of a select few or to nurture everyone's gifts such that they may be exchanged with each other?

Rodriguez, Rebekah M.; Silvia, Paul J.; Kaufman, James C.; Reiter-Palmon, Roni; Puryear, Jeb S. – Creativity Research Journal, 2023
The original 90-item Creative Behavior Inventory (CBI) was a landmark self-report scale in creativity research, and the 28-item brief form developed nearly 20 years ago continues to be a popular measure of everyday creativity.

Tu, Cuiping; Guo, Jiajun; Hatcher, Ryan C.; Kaufman, James C. – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2020
The Amusement Park Theory of Creativity, which represents both domain-specific and domain-general perspectives of creativity, calls for more research on how individual difference constructs are related to creativity at all ends of the domain-specificity and general spectrum. Toward this goal, this study examined emotional intelligence (using the…

Glaveanu, Vlad Petre; Kaufman, James C. – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2020
In this paper, we organize past and present theories and models of creativity by using a new conceptual framework--the creativity matrix--with the aim of highlighting the dimensions of creativity we know a lot about and those we tend to either ignore or find difficult to study. This matrix is formed by bringing together a developmental model of…

Taylor, Christa L.; Kaufman, James C. – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2021
Past research has demonstrated that the hierarchical value structures of creative individuals differ systematically from their less creative counterparts. However, earlier studies used a global creativity score, which is inconsistent with both creativity's movement toward a domain-specific viewpoint, and Lebedeva et al.'s 2019 study suggests the…

Tang, Chaoying; Li, Qin; Kaufman, James C. – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2018
Empirical studies on the relationship between affect and creativity often produce conflicting results. This inconsistency has led us to believe that the relationship between affect and creativity may be better understood by looking at potential moderators. Our study looked specifically at trait affect and self-perceived creativity. Using the…

Kaufman, James C. – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2017
This brief essay argues for the importance for more work on how creativity predicts positive outcomes, with a particular emphasis on expanding our definitions of these positive outcomes. The way that creativity may lead to increased equity and social justice is used as an example of these type of potential research questions.

Sternberg, Robert; Kaufman, James C. – Teachers College Record, 2018
Background/Context: Creativity is an indispensable force in intellectual, social, cultural, and economic development. Yet societal forces conspire to erode it. Educators have despaired for many years over how schools often fail to encourage creativity, but society as a whole is just as guilty. But how do schools and society fail to encourage, or…

Although the relationship between creativity and ADHD is uncertain, recent studies examining how dimensionally assessed characteristics of ADHD relate to creativity and divergent thinking in adults suggest an occasional positive, linear relationship between the constructs. However, the executive functions proposed to underlie characteristics of…
