Counting the Muses: Development of the Kaufman Domains of Creativity Scale (K-DOCS) (2012, background): “Similarly, Silvia and Kimbrel (2010) found that people high in Empathy/Communication were lower in social anxiety.”
Cantankerous creativity: Honesty–Humility, Agreeableness, and the HEXACO structure of creative achievement (2011, background): “On the inconsistent side, extraversion, neuroticism, conscientiousness, and agreeableness have effects that are weaker, inconsistent, and more complex (e.g., Feist, 1998, King et al., 1996, Reiter-Palmon et al., 2009, Roy, 1996 and Silvia and Kimbrel, 2010).”
Making creative metaphors: The importance of fluid intelligence for creative thought (2012, background): “For divergent thinking tasks, several trained raters simply evaluate and score individual ideas (Silvia, 2011; Silvia & Kimbrel, 2010; Silvia et al., 2008) or the set of ideas (Silvia et al., 2009).”
Assessing creativity with self-report scales: A review and empirical evaluation. (2012, methodology): “Silvia and Kimbrel (2010) used negative binomial models to predict CAQ domain scores, and Silvia et al. (2009) treated the domains as count variables in their latent class analysis of the CAQ.”
Preservice Teachers' Personality Traits and Engagement in Creative Activities as Predictors of Their Support for Children's Creativity (2014, background): “…of the CBI, it showed many correlations with creativity-related measures such as the Creative Achievement Questionnaire (CAQ; r = .59), Gough’s (1979) Creative Personality Scale (CPS; r = .43), self-rated creativity (r = .52; Dollinger et al., 2005), and divergent thinking (Silvia & Kimbrel, 2010).”
Verbal fluency and creativity: General and specific contributions of broad retrieval ability (Gr) factors to divergent thinking (2013, unknown): “Moreover, many studies have found meaningful effectswith thesemethods (Benedek, Franz, et al., 2012; Silvia & Kimbrel, 2010; Silvia, Nusbaum, Berg, Martin, & O'Connor, 2009), including several studies on CHC abilities (Beaty & Silvia, 2012, 2013; Nusbaum & Silvia, 2011; Silvia & Beaty, 2012).”
Evaluation of Self-Perceptions of Creativity: Is It a Useful Criterion? (2012, methodology): “This is a quasi-Guttman approach (Silvia et al., 2009), and has been used in creativity research to measure creative accomplishments successfully (Carson et al., 2005; Mar, DeYoung, Higgins, & Peterson, 2006; Silvia & Kimbrel, 2010).”
Exploring the Link Between Mind Wandering, Mindfulness, and Creativity: A Multidimensional Approach (2018, unknown): “For this reason, and in agreement with Silvia and Kimbrel (2010) and Silvia et al. (2012), the main predictors of creative achievement were examined using negative binomial models, which can account for overdispersed outcomes (Hilbe, 2007; Long, 1997).”
In Praise of Clark Kent: Creative Metacognition and the Importance of Teaching Kids When (Not) to Be Creative (2013, unknown): “For example, creativity has been linked to hypomania (Furnham, Batey, Anand, & Manfield, 2008; Lloyd-Evans, Batey, & Furnham, 2006), schizotypy (Abraham & Windmann, 2008; Karimi, Windmann, Güntürkan, & Abraham, 2007; Nettle, 2006), and anxiety (Silvia & Kimbrel, 2010).”
Opening up Openness to Experience: A Four-Factor Model and Relations to Creative Achievement in the Arts and Sciences. (2013, methodology): “As the distribution of creative achievement was heavily skewed with many zero values, traditional regression methods cannot be employed due to violations of the assumptions of normal residuals and homoscedasticity (Silvia & Kimbrel, 2010; Silvia et al., 2012).”
