A total of 346 sixth graders from public schools…

In a rapidly evolving world, grit and creativity in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) are crucial attributes for the future development of adolescent students. However, the psychological mechanisms underlying this relationship remains unclear. This study presents a new theoretical framework that explores how STEM-specific…

The present study examines two self-regulation traits, grit and curiosity, in predicting creative achievement in an adult sample (N = 522).
