The Effectiveness of Creativity Training.
Mansfield, Richard S.; And Others
Review of Educational Research, v48 n4 p517-36 Fall 1978
Evaluations of creativity training programs are described: (1) Productive Thinking; (2) Purdue Creative Thinking; (3) Parnes; (4) Myers-Torrance workbooks; and (5) Khatena. Conceptual and methodological problems are discussed. Although gains on tests of divergent thinking have been noted, it is unclear whether these programs improve real-life creativity. (CP)
