Cantankerous creativity: Honesty–Humility, Agreeableness, and the HEXACO structure of creative achievement (2011, background): “Batey and Furnham (2006) suggested that agreeableness relates positively with everyday creativity but negatively with eminent creativity, and this prediction is worth testing directly.”
