Rimm, Sylvia; Davis, Gary A. – Journal of Creative Behavior, 1976
Findings here indicate that an inventory can be constructed for a wide age range of elementary school children which can predict creativity. GIFT is easy to administer and score, and correlates with a composite creativity criterion, art teacher nominations, and scores on a Uses test. (Author/RK)

Smith, Gudmund J. W.; Carlsson, Ingegerd – Journal of Creative Behavior, 1987
A new creativity test is described that is based on the percept-genetic theory, which presumes that percepts are built by ultra-short, mostly preconscious processes. The test uses a still-life with two main structures, which is shown in two series of presentations differing in length. Results of experiments using the test are described. (Author/KM)
