  • Automated assessment of creativity in multilingual narratives

    Simone A Luchini, Ibraheem Muhammad Moosa et al.ARTICLEPsychology of Aesthetics…2026

    Researchers and educators interested in creative writing need a reliable and efficient tool to score the creativity of narratives, such as short stories. Typically, human raters manually assess narrative creativity, but such subjective scoring is limited by labor costs and rater disagreement. Large language models (LLMs) have shown remarkable success on creativity tasks, yet they have not been applied to scoring narratives, including multilingual…

  • The Scientific Creative Thinking Test (SCTT)

    Open AccessRoger E Beaty, Robert A Cortes et al.ARTICLECreativity Research Journal2026

    Creative thinking is a primary driver of innovation in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM), allowing students and practitioners to generate novel hypotheses, flexibly connect information from diverse sources, and solve ill-defined problems.

  • Automatic Scoring of Metaphor Creativity with Large Language Models

    Open AccessPaul V DiStefano, John D Patterson et al.ARTICLECreativity Research Journal2025

    Metaphor is crucial in human cognition and creativity, facilitating abstract thinking, analogical reasoning, and idea generation.Typically, human raters manually score the originality of responses to creative thinking tasks -a laborious and error-prone process.Previous research sought to remedy these risks by scoring creativity tasks automatically using semantic distance and large language models (LLMs).Here, we extend research on automatic creat…

  • Multilingual semantic distance

    Open AccessJohn D Patterson, Hannah M Merseal et al.ARTICLEPsychology of Aesthetics…2023

    Creativity research commonly involves recruiting human raters to judge the originality of responses to divergent thinking tasks, such as the alternate uses task (AUT). These manual scoring practices have benefited the field, but they also have limitations, including labor-intensiveness and subjectivity, which can adversely impact the reliability and validity of assessments. To address these challenges, researchers are increasingly employing autom…
