Working with creative leaders: Exploring the relationship between supervisors' and subordinates' creativity (2017, methodology): “Research indicates that the consensual assessment technique is a well validated and reliable method for assessing creativity (Baer et al., 2004), and it has been widely used, however, only in experimental settings (e.”
A snapshot of creativity: Evaluating a quick and simple method for assessing divergent thinking (2009, background): “Recent work has loosened the classic CAT to include diverse kinds of products, raters, and judgments (Baer et al., 2004, Kaufman et al., 2005 and Kaufman et al., 2007).”
Furious activity vs. understanding: How much expertise is needed to evaluate creative work? (2013, background): “Professional creativity researchers have been used as experts in past work (Baer et al., 2004), and their ratings strongly correlated with domain experts (Baer et al., 2009).”
Beyond New and Appropriate: Who Decides What Is Creative? (2012, background): “We first asked three groups of experts to rate a set of 27 short stories and 28 poems for creativity (Baer et al., 2004; Baer, Kaufman, & Riggs, 2009; Kaufman, Gentile, & Baer, 2005).”
Toward a broader conception of creativity: A case for "mini-c" creativity. (2007, background): “Product-based assessment has many wonderful uses, and we continue to learn more about the extents to which they are applicable (e.g., Baer, Kaufman, & Gentile, 2004 ).”
Differential Effects of Divergent Thinking, Domain Knowledge, and Interest on Creative Performance in Art and Math (2011, methodology): “Even though the tasks used in this study have been widely used in past research (Amabile, 1983 , 1996 ; Baer, 1993 , 1994 ; Han & Marvin, 2002 ), they typically demand minimal knowledge and skills (Baer, Kaufman, & Gentile, 2004 ).”
The Importance of Domain-Specific Expertise in Creativity (2015, unknown): “…Amabile in 1982 and further developed by her and other researchers in the last quarter century (Amabile, 1982, 1983, 1996; Baer, 1993, 1994a, 1994c; Baer et al., 2004; Baer & McKool, 2009, 2014; Hennessey, 1994; Kaufman, Baer, Cole, & Sexton, 2008; Kaufman, Baer, Cropley, ReiterPalmon, & Sinnett,…”
A scattered CAT: A critical evaluation of the consensual assessment technique for creativity research. (2019, background): “Baer, Kaufman, and Gentile (2004) and Christiaans and Venselaar (2005), were able to show that CAT inter-rater reliability could remain high even when creative outputs were not generated under experimental conditions, demonstrating that although the original CAT guidelines offer a foundation on…”
A Comparison of Expert and Nonexpert Raters Using the Consensual Assessment Technique (2008, methodology): “Baer et al. (2004) were able to extend, significantly, the range of creative products that could be assessed using the CAT.”
