Why Do Teachers Connect Better With Some Students Than Others? Exploring the Influence of Teachers’ Creative-Thinking Preferences
Teacher–student connection is influenced by several factors and one possible factor is teachers’ creative - thinking preferences (CTP). The present study investigated the extent to which teachers’ CTP predicts their view of favorable student characteristics. Teachers’ CTP was measured by FourSight that featured four preferences: clarifying, ideating, developing, and implementing. Two hundred seventy-five teachers in the United States completed th…

Person-Environment Fit
The purpose of this study was to explore the use of commensurate scales for research on person-environment fit. Three commensurate scales were derived from the Kirton Adaption-Innovation Inventory by altering the instructions of this cognitive-style measure. The three scales measured person-environment fit in the workplace. Respondents ( n = 108) indicated the kind of person they were required to be at work, the kind of person they currently were…
Person‐environment fit
The relationship between person‐environment fit and stress was examined for two samples of university students ( N =55 and 79). The Kirton Adaption‐Innovation Inventory (KAI) was modified to assess the students' perceptions of the adaptor‐innovator style required by their course, the styles they exhibited in the course, and their ideal style preferences. To ascertain fit, the KAI total scores and subscale scores (Originality, Efficiency, and Rule…
Adaption-Innovation and the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking
Kirton has asserted that his measure of creative style, Kirton Adaption-Innovation Inventory, is discrete or orthogonal to level measures of creativity. This study used a well-established measure, the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking, on a relatively larger sample than in previous studies. Scores for 132 (40 men, 92 women) college students on Kirton's measure were significantly correlated with scores on Torrance's Fluency, Flexibility, and Ori…
