A sample of 68 young adults responded to the Creativity Scale of the Adjective Checklist, the Revised UCLA Loneliness Scale, the Personal Resource Questionnaire (PRQ85) Part II, and the Lack of Social Self-confidence Subscale of the Interpersonal Dependency Inventory. As predicted, statistically significant inverse correlations were found between scores on measures of loneliness and creativity and between scores on measures of lack of social self confidence and creativity. Contrary to the hypothesized direction, a statistically significant positive correlation was found between scores on measures of perceived social support and creativity
