Game-Playing as an Aid to the Creative Process of Small Groups.
Tulenko, Paul; Kryder, Suzanne
Journal of Creative Behavior, v24 n2 p99-104 1990
To increase group creativity and understanding of the creative process, a 3-hour session of nonthreatening game playing was undertaken with 10 graduate students. Games included comfort-establishing, trust-building, and challenge activities. Observers were unaware of any individual asserting dominance, and participants formed relationships that permitted open and cooperative creativity. (PB)
