“…It has been argued that a comprehensive assessment of an individual's creativity cannot be attained without a measure of its product (Horn & Salvendy, 2006). The focus within this approach lies on rating individuals' creative products in different areas, such as writing, art, music, science or mathematics (O'Quin & Besemer, 1989). The Consensual Assessment Technique (CAT), suggested by Amabile (1982), has been frequently used in creativity studies that employed a product-based assessment (e.g.…”

This paper presents a review of the literature on the measurement of creativity. Creativity definitions are discussed as a starting point for understanding the nature of this construct. The four major approaches to measuring creativity (process, person, product and press) are reviewed, pointing out commonly used instruments as well as the advantages and weaknesses of each approach. This review reveals that the measurement of creativity is an unsettled issue, and that the existing instruments purporting to measure creativity suffer from serious conceptual and psychometric shortcomings. Research gaps and suggestions for future research are discussed. INTRODUCTIONCreativity is considered as a precious asset for solving individual, organizational and social problems and achieving sustainable development (Barbot, Besançon, & Lubart, 2015;Lubart, Zenasni, & Barbot, 2013;Zeng, Proctor, & Salvendy, 2011). Accordingly, understanding the nature and determinants of creativity is of great importance to enhance its development. However, although much research has been devoted to such understanding, some controversial issues have not yet been settled.One of the most controversial issues in creativity research is the measurement of this construct (Baer & McKool, 2009; Barbot, Besançon, & Lubart, 2011; Blamiresa & Peterson, 2014;Kaufman, Baer, Cole, & Sexton, 2008;Mouchiroud & Lubart, 2001;Park, Chun, & Lee, 2016;Zeng et al., 2011). The growing body of creativity research has devoted considerable attention to the development of numerous instruments assessing dif- Wim Van den NoortgateUniversity of Leuven, Belgium E-mail address: wim.vandennoortgate@kuleuven.be * This research was supported by a grant from the Government of Egypt Unauthenticated Download Date | 5/11/18 5:43 PM 239 ferent aspects of creativity, ranging from cognitive processes to environmental factors (Kaufman, Lee, Baer, & Lee, 2007;Park et al., 2016).The most prominent characteristic of this body of instruments is their diversity, indicating the complexity of defining and measuring creativity (Hocevar, 1981). In addition, these instruments have limitations, such as measuring trivial aspects of creativity or lacking adequate psychometric properties (Baer & McKool, 2009;Kaufman et al., 2007). Hence, researchers seeking to measure creativity face a number of unsolved issues, including how creativity should be defined, what particular aspects of this construct need to be valued and measured, and what the most appropriate instruments are, for measuring these aspects (Blamiresa & Peterson, 2014;Treffinger, Young, Selby, & Shepardson, 2002). In this regard, this paper aims to shed light on these issues through answering these questions:1. How is creativity defined and described in the literature? 2. What are the approaches to measuring creativity? 3. What are the most commonly used instruments in each approach? 4. What are the advantages and weaknesses of the existing approaches for measuring creativity?We try to answer these questions through systematically reviewin...

“…This metric assesses creativity as the combination of usefulness and unusualness, which is a common itemization of creativity used in creativity metrics for product design, and which produces similar results compared with previous ones, as is demonstrated in the study conducted by Chulvi (Chulvi et al 2012). The study showed the evaluation of five objects by means of four different creativity assessment methods: Sarkar and Chakrabarti (2008), Moss (1966), EPI (Justel, 2006) and CPSS (O'Quin and Besemer 1989). There, CPSS is a questionnaire that comprises several evaluators and provides the creativity value in a continuous scale; the methods of Moss and EPI comprise one single evaluator and the results are in a continuous scale; and the method of Sarkar and Chakrabarti comprises one single evaluator and provides the creativity values as ordinal data.…”

“…There are several metrics that can be used to assess the degree of creativity of the conceptual solutions for the innovative design problems, like Sarkar and Chakrabarti's SAPPhIRE (State change-Action-PartPhenomenon-Input-oRgan-Effect) model (Sarkar and Chakrabarti 2008), Besemer and O'Quin's taxonomy of CPSS (Creative Product Semantic Scale) (O'Quin and Besemer 1989), the rating questionnaires of Kudrowitz and Wallace (Kudrowitz and Wallace 2012), the metrics for measuring ideation effectiveness of Shah et al (2003) or the comparative scale of Moss (Moss 1966). This last one was chosen for the present study because it is specifically designed to assess creativity by comparing a set of solutions provided for the same problem, and it uses a continuous scale for this purpose, which is useful for statistical treatment.…”

The effect of information and communication technologies on creativity in collaborative design

This study compares the degree of creativity of forty-two conceptual designs proposed as solutions to two innovative design problems developed in face-to-face and virtual collaborative environments. The solutions obtained were evaluated by three experts applying the Moss metric, which considers the level of usefulness and the level of unusualness. The average values and the trends of the data were obtained and an analysis of the variance was also performed to determine whether the environment influences the degree of creativity. The results show that it cannot be proved that the level of creativity is influenced by working face-to-face or virtually, that is, whether Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) are used or not has no effect on the final result.
