In the rapidly evolving field of artificial intelligence (AI) literature generation, understanding how society perceives AI-generated content, compared with human-produced literature is of paramount importance. This study investigated societal perceptions and biases toward AI-generated versus human-produced poetry. A sample of 123 participants was…

Creativity researchers have recently sought to standardize idea assessment via computational measures of semantic distance: the degree of conceptual dissimilarity between words. The relationship between semantic distance and creativity has traditionally been described using linear models, with the embedded assumption that as semantic distance…

Research suggests that generative AI (GAI) responds to divergent thinking (DT) prompts with multiple ideas, some of which seem to be original. The present investigation administered 55 DT tasks to three GAI services (Bard, GPT 3.5, and GPT 4.0). Instead of examining individual responses, an Idea Density algorithm was used to assess the output.…

Expanding the social identity view of creativity from the situated cognition perspective, this research examined how the perception of an innovative organizational identity influences cognitive flexibility, one of the pathways to creativity, through the mechanism of creative self-efficacy. The results from experimental Study 1 (128 respondents)…

This study aims to explore whether the creativity of university students in Higher Vocational Education in China can enhance their creative performance through autonomous motivation. The theoretical foundation of this study is interactionist model of creativity, the study employs structural equation modeling for analysis and validation. A survey…

The purpose of this systematic review was to survey available measures of creativity for pk12 students for assessments characteristics and reporting of psychometric properties. Using the PRISMA framework, we identified 42 unique articles with 48 assessments meeting our inclusion criteria. Then, two coders independently coded all articles using a…

This study aimed to develop and validate the Creative Problem-Solving Skills Test (CPSS-T), grounded in Torrance's creativity theory, to assess these skills in university students. The CPSS-T consists of five open-ended question types, each designed to measure different aspects of creative problem-solving: Alternative Use, Hypothetical Scenario,…

This article considers the assessment of collaborative, creative theatre by students in Higher Education, made as what theatre scholar and educationalist Kathy Dacre refers to as "simulated professional practice". During UK lockdown (2020-22) for the COVID-19 pandemic, difficulties arose with the assessment of students' digital and…

Creative thinking is a fundamental skill for addressing the challenges of the 21st century, fostering innovation, and contributing to social, economic, and cultural development. Recognizing its significance, the OECD introduced creative thinking as part of the PISA 2022 assessment. This assessment evaluates students' capacity to generate,…

This study synthesizes quantitative research on the relationship between creativity and bilingualism. Extant literature underlines the role of developmental, cognitive, and socio-cultural factors to explain the nature of the relationship between creativity and bilingualism. While decades of research frequently indicate a positive link, contrary or…

Asking questions is a key characteristic of creativity and an important component of the creative process. Although much evidence has supported the association between asking questions and creativity, less research has examined the "nature of questions" asked by creative persons. In this study, we investigated the relation between…

Some types of instructions for creativity tasks (such as explicitly telling people to be creative) can boost performance. Showing people examples or telling them ways of approaching the problem before they begin a creativity task can help, but results are mixed about whether it is better to emphasize positive examples/approaches that can be…

This study investigates the underlying patterns in elements of creativity conceptions among researchers using Q-methodology. Participants, who had published work on creativity, completed a Q-sort of 90 items related to creativity conceptions. The data analysis identified four distinct components: one emphasizing innovation and uniqueness, another…

Future-oriented thinking appears conducive to fostering creativity. However, various unreconciled theoretical accounts have been proposed, and whether past-oriented thinking facilitates creativity has been under-explored. By leveraging differing expectations associated with past-oriented thinking, this paper compares the (1)…

The development of creative thinking is an important task of modern education. The purpose of this study is to empirically confirm/disprove the hypothesis that the tools of an educational environment with innovative technologies contribute to the development of pedagogy students' creativity. For this purpose, a creativity course was designed and…
