Assessment of real-life creativity: The Inventory of Creative Activities and Achievements (ICAA). (2017, result): “…between creative activity and achievement with openness to experience (Feist, 1998; Kaufman, 2013; Ma, 2009; McCrae, 1987; Puryear, Kettler, & Rinn, 2017), divergent thinking ability (Jauk et al., 2014; Plucker, 1999), and intelligence (Beaty, Nusbaum, & Silvia, 2014; Jauk et al., 2013; Kim, 2008).”
Pretend Play, Divergent Thinking, and Math Achievement in Girls: A Longitudinal Study (2015, methodology): “Although divergent thinking has recently been criticized as a measure of creative ability, there is longitudinal evidence for the predictive validity of the Torrance Test of Creative Thinking, a divergent thinking measure (Kim, 2008).”
Convergent Thinking Moderates the Relationship between Divergent Thinking and Scientific Creativity (2019, background): “Some studies have showed that divergent thinking can not only predict the number of achievements (Kim, 2008; Plucker, 1999; Torrance, 1988) but also their quality (Beaty et al.”
Does insight problem solving predict real-world creativity? (2014, methodology): “Both variables, in turn, consistently—albeit modestly—predict creative achievement (Jauk, Benedek, & Neubauer, 2014; Kim, 2008).”
Predicting Creative Problem-Solving in Math From a Dynamic System Model of Creative Problem Solving Ability (2011, background): “In her meta-analysis, K. H. Kim (2008) found that DT significantly correlated (r¼ .216) with creative achievement.”
The Creativity Crisis: The Decrease in Creative Thinking Scores on the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking (2011, background): “When predicting creative achievement, Kim (2008a) found scores on the TTCT predict (r¼ .33) creative achievement better than other measures of creative or divergent thinking.”
Scoring divergent thinking tests: A review and systematic framework. (2019, background): “However, because idea generation is critical to creativity across domains, DT test scores can be understood as indicators of potential, and they have been found to be predictive of creative achievement (Guilford, 1966; Kim, 2008; Plucker, 1999; Runco, Millar, Acar, & Cramond, 2010).”
A Sociocultural Theory of Creativity: Bridging the Social, the Material, and the Psychological (2020, background): “And this despite the fact that, besides ideation and creative potential, researchers have long been interested in creative achievement, its predictors (Jauk et al., 2014), correlates (Kim, 2008), and measurement (Carson et al., 2005).”
Intelligence, general knowledge and personality as predictors of creativity (2010, background): “Studies that have examined the relationship of creativity to intelligence have tended to find modest correlations (Batey, & Furnham, 2006; Kim, 2006).”
Combining Scores in Multiple-Criteria Assessment Systems (2014, background): “If the measures to be combined do not have strong correlations, such as creativity and intellectual ability (Kim, 2008), the rule may prove overly restrictive at high cutoffs (see Figure 1).”
The cognitive underpinnings of creative thought: A latent variable analysis exploring the roles of intelligence and working memory in three creative thinking processes (2013, background): “…view creativity and intelligence as unitary constructs that aremodestly related at best (r ranging from approximately .17 to .39) (Batey & Furnham, 2006; Cho et al., 2010; Kaufman, 2009; Kim, 2008; Runco, 2007) and exactly how these two constructs are related remains an area of contentious debate.”
Why do ideas get more creative across time? An executive interpretation of the serial order effect in divergent thinking tasks. (2012, background): “Past meta-analyses ( Kim, 2005, 2008) and literature reviews ( Kaufman & Plucker, 2011; Kim, Cramond, & VanTassel-Baska, 2010) suggest that creativity and intelligence are modestly related.”
A dimensional analysis of creativity and mental illness: Do anxiety and depression symptoms predict creative cognition, creative accomplishments, and creative self-concepts? (2010, result): “The relations between divergent thinking and creative achievement are consistent with a recent meta- analysis (Kim, 2008), which found an overall relationship of r = .22 between divergent thinking and accomplishments.”
