Personality and Creativity: A Study in Spanish-Speaking Children

Abstract: This work aimed at studying the relationship between personality from the Big Five Personality model and creativity through different techniques (i.e., a paper and pencil task, and scales) and informants (i.e., the child and parents). We evaluated a sample of 359 Spanish-speaking school children of both genders, aged 9 to 13 years. Personality was assessed with the Argentine Questionnaire of children's Personality (CAPI). Creativity was evaluated using the following instruments: The Torrance Test of Creative T… Show more

“…These results coincide with the findings of other authors on the relationship between personality and creativity (Romo et al, 2017;Sanz de Acedo et al, 2014;Werner et al, 2014) and personality and job engagement (Mesurado et al, 2018;Panacio & Vandenberghe, 2012;Taris et al, 2017;Tisu et al, 2020). The study by Krumm et al (2018) related Creativity support to all the personality factors except Neuroticism. On this subject, other authors emphasize the role of creative personality in the creativity of nursing students (Hsing-Yuan, 2020) and how creativity favors self-critical thought (Furnham et al, 2013;Taherinejad et al, 2017).…”

“…These results show that developing an innovative work environment can foster the creative potential of professionals (Mayfield & Mayfield, 2010), since creative employees who show a positive attitude toward change (Romo et al, 2017) and low levels of neuroticism (Krumm et al, 2018) are needed to favor institutional growth and potentialization. In view of previous studies, this one was intended to progress in the knowledge of engagement, attempting to analyze and confirm the types of relationships between different variables (personality, perception of creativity and work engagement) and, also, further study the mediating effects, in particular, with respect to the role of perception of creative workplaces in the relationship between personality and work engagement.…”

“…Por otra parte, se trata de niños que siempre son más inestables en las respuestas, al mismo tiempo que en este estudio se ha utilizado un tipo particular de test de creatividad y de personalidad. En efecto, estudios realizados tanto con adultos como en niños sobre la relación entre la personalidad (en general desde el enfoque de los rasgos) y la creatividad, no suelen presentar correlaciones elevadas entre las variables (e.g., Batey & Furnham, 2006;Krumm, Lemos, & Richaud, 2018;Sung & Choi, 2009). Además, las correlaciones también dependen de la forma en que se evalúa la creatividad, ya que, en general, se han encontrado en adultos correlaciones más elevadas entre algunos factores de personalidad y la creatividad, cuando esta última es medida a través de auto reportes (Puryear et al, 2017;Silvia et al, 2009).…”

“…Desde el enfoque de los Big Five, De Caroli y Sagone (2009) reportaron correlaciones moderadas negativas y significativas entre Escrupulosidad y la dimensión Flexibilidad del TTCT (-.19), así como entre Inestabilidad Emocional y la dimensión Abstracción de títulos del TTCT (-.21) en niños italianos de 8 a 10 años. En la misma línea de trabajo, se observó que el factor Neuroticismo era un predictor negativo de la creatividad evaluada a través de tareas de papel y lápiz, autoinformes y reportes de padres, mientras que la faceta competencia (faceta negativa de Neuroticismo) era un predictor positivo en niños argentinos de 9 a 13 años (Krumm, Lemos, & Richaud, 2018). Consistentemente, en los dos estudios mencionados no se observó una relación entre la creatividad y la apertura a la experiencia.…”

“…Another study found that self/everyday creativity was correlated with extraversion, openness to experience, and conscientiousness among undergraduate students (Ivcevic 2007). A recent study with schoolchildren showed that only neuroticism was negatively associated with general creativity (Krumm et al 2018). While openness to experience was the only predictor of creativity assessed via three different general creativity measures in one study (Batey et al 2010), only extraversion was found to be associated with all four different measures of general creativity in another (Furnham and Bachtiar 2008).…”
