8 Don’t Be Afraid To Be Creative.
9. Creativity…How Ambiguous.
10 Is Creativity Wrong?
TWO PHASES OF CREATIVITY
Creativity can be divided into two
phases of thinking:
 Divergent thinking
 Convergent thinking
DIVERGENT THINKING
• Is the ability to find many possible answers to a particular
problem. Guilford (1950).
• Divergent thinking is a thought process or method used to
generate creative ideas by exploring many possible solutions.
• Divergent thinking typically occurs in a spontaneous, free-
flowing manner, such that many ideas are generated in an
emergent cognitive fashion.
• Psychologists have found that a high IQ alone does not
guarantee creativity. Instead, personality traits that
promote divergent thinking are more important. Divergent
thinking is found among people with personalities which
have traits such as nonconformity, curiosity, willingness to
take risks, and persistence.
ACTIVITIES WHICH PROMOTE
DIVERGENT THINKING
• Creating Lists Of Questions,
• Setting Aside Time For Thinking And Meditation,
• Brainstorming.
• Subject Mapping / "Bubble Mapping",
• Keeping A Journal,
• Creating Artwork, And Free Writing.
CONVERGENT THINKING
• The term convergent thinking was coined by J.P.Guilford, a
psychologist well known foe his research on creativity.
• Convergent thinking involves the pursuit of predetermined a
goal, usually in linear progression and using highly focused
problem solving techniques.
• Convergent thinking questions are those which represent the
analysis and integration of given or remembered information.
They lead you to an expected end result or answer.
Convergent
 Using logic
 Combining what normally “belongs” together
 Being accurate
 Finding the best answer
 Playing by the rules
Divergent
 Taking risks
 Generating multiple answers
 Looking from a new perspective
 Combining what does not “normally” belong together
 Changing what is known
Example of thinking process
 Adjective Checklist (ACL).
 Khatena-Torrance Creative Perception
Inventory.
 Kirton Adaptation Innovation Inventory (KAI).
 Myers-Briggs Type Indicator.
Personality Assessment
Instruments Used in the
Field of Creativity

attributes, 'actual’ & ‘ideal’ self; identification of
potentially creative persons.
• struCture:300 item list of adjectives measures
37 traits.
• ADministrAtion:Self-assessment or by observer
for10 to 15 minutes.
• Age rAnge:Widely used in adults.
Adjective Checklist
 PurPose: Measures artistic inclination, intelligence,
individuality, sensitivity, initiative, and self strength;
imagination, appeal to authority, self confidence,
inquisitiveness, and awareness of others.
 struCture:Comprises two tests:
• Something About Myself
• What Kind of Person Are You?
 ADministrAtion: Self report 20–40 minutes

Khatena-Torrance Creative
Perception Inventory.
 PurPose:Evaluates differences in preferred
styles of problem-solving and creativity:
adaptors improve things; innovators do things
differently.
 structure:Adaptation/ Innovation
continuum.
 AdministrAtion: 32 items.
 Age rAnge:Teens and adults.
Kirton Adaptation
Innovation Inventory
 PurPose:Uses the Jungian dichotomies of:
• introversion/extroversion
• sensing/intuiting
• thinking/feeling
• perceiving/judging
 structure:16 different personality types.
 AdministrAtion: 166 multiple choice items.
 Age rAnge:14 years and older.
Myers-Briggs Type
Indicator
Creativity requires both divergent and convergent thinking.
This is mostly based on divergent thinking. It generates
something new or different. It involves having a different
idea that works as well or better than previous ideas.
Once a person has a knowledge base (part of convergent
/divergent thinking can take place). The knowledge base also
makes it possible for a person to vary their thoughts from the
norm and to identify a solution that may be effective
