Approaches to Measuring Creativity: A Systematic Literature Review (2017, background): “Second, the focus for measuring creativity using the CAT is entirely on the creative products, without any investigation of the cognitive processes that lead to the creation of these products (Amabile, 1982; Baer & McKool, 2009; Batey, 2012; Batey et al., 2010; Piffer, 2012; Runco, 2004).”
On the Usefulness of “Value” in the Definition of Creativity (2015, background): “This three-criterion view was carried further by Simonton (2012), who lamented the lack of agreement among researchers concerning the definition of the critical concepts in the study of creativity (see also Kharkhurin, 2014; Piffer, 2012).”
Understanding Fluency and Originality: A latent variable perspective (2014, background): “This is highly relevant to research on divergent thinking and creativity because the measurement error ssociated with divergent thinking tasks can at times be substantial (Piffer, 2012).”
Creativity.4in1: Four-Criterion Construct of Creativity (2014, background): “Piffer (2012) proposed a model in which classical characteristics—novelty and utility—are complimented with another one, the impact.”
