Mere listening effect on creativity and the mediating role of psychological safety. (2018, unknown): “…self-report measures of creativity tend to correlate only modestly with actual creative performance and are linked to creative self-efficacy (e.g., Pretz & McCollum, 2014; Reiter-Palmon, Robinson-Morral, Kaufman, & Santo, 2012), our results may indicate that listening is related both to…”
Toward Untangling Creative Self-Beliefs (2017, background): “Although previous work has suggested that creative-self beliefs seem to be domain-specific (e.g., Baer, this volume; Kaufman et al., 2015; Pretz & McCollum, 2014), we recommend that researchers further test domain specificity using more robust analytic techniques.”
The Importance of Domain-Specific Expertise in Creativity (2015, background): “This need for subdomain specificity to properly gauge the effects of creativity training echoes what Pretz and McCollum (2014) wrote about the need for extremely domain-specific analyses: “Perhaps prior studies of domain-specific creativity were not specific enough” (p. 233).”
Creative metacognition and self-ratings of creative performance: A 4-C perspective (2016, methodology): “The two questions used by Pretz and McCollum (2014), for example, were “My responses to the task were creative” and “My responses were more creative than those of the average person my age” (p. 230).”
A Meta-Analysis of the Relation between Creative Self-Efficacy and Different Creativity Measurements (2018, background): “Pretz and McCollum (2014) asserted that the knowledge about the relationship between creative self-perceptions and creative performance is inconclusive.”
