Peer reviewedMoran, James D., III; Liou, Ellen Y. Y. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
College students at two levels of cognitive ability were assigned to a rewarded or nonrewarded condition for group administration of creativity tests. Performance varied by group, task, and subject variables. The findings suggest that tangible incentives may have a detrimental effect on creativity in certain contexts. (Author/RD)
