Response to “Comment on the Process Definition of Creativity”
Dr Weisberg has presented a commentary on our paper, The Process Definition of Creativity, in which he formulates criticisms of several elements of the process definition that we propose. Here, we
The Scientific Creative Thinking Test (SCTT)
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. To foster creativity in STEM education, there is a crucial need for assessment tools for measuring STEM creativity that educators and researchers can apply to test how different teaching approach…
The Relationship Between Social Media Use and Creativity
In the digital era, social media continues to consume an increasing share of individuals' time and attention. As a result, the association between social media use (SMU) and creativity has garnered growing interest in both public discourse and academic research, although empirical findings remain inconsistent. We conducted a meta‐analysis of 31 studies (71 effect sizes, total N = 10,156) to examine the relationship between SMU and creativity. The…
Thematic profile analysis reveals the explanatory power of themes in creative ideas
Brain networks supporting scientific creative thinking
Stopping Short
Creative cognition plays a pivotal role in our society, especially in times of resource scarcity and change, and is particularly important in leadership positions. In many creative professions, however, there is a gender disparity at the top, with a larger proportion of men in leadership roles and greater dissemination of their work by influential institutions like art galleries, symphony orchestras, and so on. In many cases, during the process o…
The Process Definition of Creativity
The “standard” definition of creativity as novel and useful describes creative products, but creativity is constituted by processes. This misalignment contributes to the oft-noted challenges of operationalizing creativity. Here, we distinguish creativity as a process from creativity as an attribute (i.e. “creative-ness”). Operating from a priori premises of creativity theory, we develop a process definition of creativity. Specifically, creativity…
The Impact of Adding a Fourth Item to the Traditional 3-Item Remote Associates Test
The compound Remote Associates Test (RAT) is a classic measure of creativity. Participants are shown three cue words (sore-shoulder-sweat) and asked to generate a word that connects them (cold). Theoretical views of RAT performance differ in the degree to which they conceptualize performance as depending on automatic spreading activation across semantic networks, strategic generation of bi-associations, and other analytical processes (e.g. execut…
Evidence for an Asymmetric Switch Cost in State Creativity
The role of top-down control in divergent creativity remains heavily debated. An outstanding question about the state dynamics of creativity concerns acute shifts between heightened and lowered creative states. Particularly, do transitions between creative states incur a “switch cost” as observed in other domains of cognition? Prior research showed that asymmetric switch costs are often incurred such that reaction time is asymmetrically slower wh…

Individual Differences in Parietal and Premotor Activity During Spatial Cognition Predict Figural Creativity
Creativity often requires envisioning novel connections and combinations among elements in space, e.g., to invent a new product or generate a work of art. A relationship between spatial cognition and creativity has been demonstrated at both the behavioral and neural levels, but the exact neurocognitive mechanisms that bridge this connection remain unclear. The present study tested whether individual differences in functional activation in spatial…

Fine motor skills during early childhood predict visuospatial deductive reasoning in adolescence
Extensive evidence and theory suggest that the development of motor skills during infancy and early childhood initiates a "developmental cascade" for cognitive abilities, such as reading and math. Motor skills are closely connected with the development of spatial cognition, an ability that supports deductive reasoning. Despite the linkage between motor skills and spatial cognition, and spatial cognition with deductive reasoning, no research has e…
High School Students’ Experiences with Geographic Information Systems and Factors Predicting Enrollment in the Geospatial Semester
The goal of the present study was to characterize high school students’ (n = 338) exposure to geospatial technologies and investigate factors predicting enrollment in a GIS course. Students who reported using GIS were almost 10 times more likely to enroll than students without experience using GIS. Males were more than 3 times more likely to enroll than females. Spatial skills, but not beliefs about spatial ability, also predicted enrollment. The…

Intellect as distinct from openness
Relatively little is known about the neural bases of the Big Five personality trait Openness/Intellect. This trait is composed of 2 related but separable aspects, Openness to Experience and Intellect. On the basis of previous behavioral research (C. G. DeYoung, J. B. Peterson, & D. M. Higgins, 2005), the authors hypothesized that brain activity supporting working memory (WM) would be related to Intellect but not to Openness. To test this hypothes…
