In this paper, we organize past and present theories and models of creativity by using a new conceptual framework--the creativity matrix--with the aim of highlighting the dimensions of creativity we know a lot about and those we tend to either ignore or find difficult to study. This matrix is formed by bringing together a developmental model of…

More and more research is showing how different environments can lead to greater or lower creative skills. The purpose of this concept paper is to introduce a novel application of the optimal-level of arousal model that could address inconsistencies present in the literature. After introducing possible definitions of creativity, I discuss the…

This theoretical article proposes a unified framework of analysis for the constructs of intelligence and creativity. General definitions for intelligence and creativity are provided, allowing fair comparisons between the two context-embedded constructs. A novel taxonomy is introduced to classify the contexts in which intelligent and/or creative…

This study provides insight into the role of expertise in the process of team creativity. Existing process models, that is, the random variation model and the creative synthesis model, either fail to treat team as an independent creative entity or neglect the differentiation in the voice of individual members in team creative process. In contrast,…

Human ratings are ubiquitous in creativity research. Yet, the process of rating responses to creativity tasks -- typically several hundred or thousands of responses, per rater -- is often time-consuming and expensive. Planned missing data designs, where raters only rate a subset of the total number of responses, have been recently proposed as one…

The Dual Pathway to Creativity Model theorizes that creative performance arises from cognitive flexibility, persistence, or a combination of the two. Existing research has only examined these pathways independently, limiting our understanding of the model and of how people generate ideas. We extend the DPCM model by predicting that creative output…

When producing creative ideas (i.e., ideas that are original and useful) two main processes occur: ideation, where people brainstorm ideas, and evaluation, where they decide if the ideas are creative or not. While much is known about the ideation phase, the cognitive processes involved in creativity evaluation are less clear. In this article, we…

In the age of artificial intelligence where standard problems are increasingly processed by computers, creative problem solving, the ability to think outside the box is in high demand. Collaboration is also increasingly significant, which makes creative collaboration an important twenty-first-century skill. In the research described in this paper,…

Much has been made of the apparent capacity for creativity of generative AI. However, as research expands the knowledge base regarding the capabilities and performance of this technology, the prevailing view is shifting away from "AI is creative" and towards a more balanced model of Human-AI co-creativity. Nevertheless, even this…

Education in the modern era requires students to have high creative skills to face the challenges of a complex world. However, the lack of teaching learning models that foster students' creativity is a common problem in classroom learning. This research aims to explore the impact of the STEM-DT (Science, Technology, Engineering, and…

This paper introduces the Heritage-based Education 5.0 model as a transformative approach to decolonize higher education in Zimbabwe and other postcolonial contexts. Departing from the traditional Education 3.0 banking model, which imposes Western-centric knowledge on passive students, this model recognizes and values students' cultural heritage…

Because students need 21st-century skills, this mixed methods study aimed to compare gifted service models and their effect on the development of student creativity in elementary school. The quantitative research phase was conducted through a pretest-posttest design using the "Torrance Test of Creative Thinking, Figural." Student…

Scientific creativity plays an essential role in science education as an advanced cognitive ability that inspires students to solve scientific problems inventively. The cultivation of scientific creativity relies heavily on effective assessment. Typically, human raters manually score scientific creativity using the Consensual Assessment Technique…

Econometrics has become increasingly important in Economics and Business degrees, since it appears to be narrowly related to several main skills and competencies as information management, creativity, problem-solving or decision-making. Furthermore, the development of information technologies, including econometric software, makes it possible to…

The objectives of this research are (1) to study and synthesise the conceptual framework of the imagineering learning model with inquiry-based learning via augmented reality to enhance creative products and digital empathy, (2) to develop the imagineering learning model with inquiry-based learning via augmented reality to enhance creative products…
