Verbal fluency and creativity: General and specific contributions of broad retrieval ability (Gr) factors to divergent thinking (2013, methodology): “…ratings of cleverness and remoteness (e.g., Christensen, Guilford, & Wilson, 1957)—and subjective ratings are the basis of the consensual assessment technique (Amabile, 1982), perhaps the most common method for evaluating creative products (Kaufman, Plucker, & Russell, 2012; Kaufman et al., 2008).”
Assessing Creativity in the Classroom (2011, background): “A thorough review of these tools is not the purpose of the present article; for this specific end, there are many reviews and discussions on the numerous instruments, procedures, and methods that have been used to assess creative processes, products, or persons, in the literature [14, 15, 26-37].”
Do experts and novices evaluate movies the same way (2009, background): “However, the same research team, studying expert and non-gifted novice judgments of creativity in poetry, found only a moderate degree of agreement between expert and non-expert judges, with lower ratings by the expert judges (Kaufman et al., 2008).”
The relationship between trait emotional intelligence and creativity across subject domains (2011, background): “…2005; see also Kim 2006), the most widely used tests tend to be successful in the identification of creative individuals (Plucker 1999), and DT abilities have, therefore, become well established as indicators of creative potential (Batey et al. 2009b; Furnham et al. 2008; Kaufman et al. 2008).”
Intelligence and Creativity Are Pretty Similar After All (2015, background): “All the textbooks on creativity and its assessment from this period concluded that intelligence and creativity were largely independent cognitive abilities (e.g., Kaufman et al. 2008; Runco 2007; Sawyer 2006; Weisberg 2006).”
