“…Nec ßka (1986, cited after Cropley, 1990) proposed that creative behavior can be energized by five classes of motives including intrinsic, playful, expressive, instrumental, and control motives. More recently, Luria and Kaufman (2018) have identified six creative needs including beauty, power, discovery, communication, individuality, and pleasure. A comprehensive review of the literature on creativity, motivation, and leisure revealed a total of nine motives that appeared relevant for everyday creativity (Bruckdorfer, 2017):…”

“…They may be of higher importance for creative professionals, as their livelihood and reputation depend on their creative work. Professional creativity may also rely on further intrinsic motives such the feeling of being on a mission and deep passion (Amabile, 1997;Auger & Woodman, 2016;Nec ßka, 1986;Luria & Kaufman, 2018), which may be relatively less significant in the context of everyday creativity (Grohman, Ivcevic, Silvia, & Kaufman, 2017). Future research thus should explore differences in the relevance of motives between everyday creativity and professional creativity potentially including, for example, mission/ passion as additional motive.…”

People spend a lot of time on creative activities in their leisure time, but we still know little about what these activities are and what drives them. The literature suggests that several specific motives may be relevant for everyday creative behavior, including enjoyment, expression, challenge, coping, prosocial, social, material, recognition, and duty motives. Across two online studies totaling 750 participants, enjoyment was the strongest motive for everyday creativity, consistent with previous research linking creativity to intrinsic motivation and positive affect. Importantly, however, the relevance of motives differed across creative domains: visual arts, literature, and music were more strongly motivated by expression and coping motives, whereas handicrafts and creative cooking were more strongly motivated by prosocial and recognition motives. Intrinsic motives for creative activities were substantially related to high openness to experience, but explained incremental variance in the prediction of self‐reported creativity as well as rated creative achievements. Together, these findings provide new insights into the motivational basis and function of everyday creativity.

“…Contudo, estas dimensões relacionam-se de forma variável com as características criativas dos docentes (Auger & Woodman, 2016;Luria & Kaufman, 2018). Assim, estar motivado no quotidiano docente relacionar-se-á com múltiplas variáveis, podendo a personalidade do docente ser uma delas.…”

A criatividade envolve características de personalidade e vários estudos reforçam a motivação intrínseca como necessária a uma personalidade criativa. É importante também um clima estimulante em sala de aula, o qual não será alheio ao professor e suas características criativas, incluindo a motivação. Há ainda que considerar, para a prática criativa, a motivação do docente face ao trabalho. Neste estudo exploratório, analisa-se a relação entre personalidade criativa e motivação para o trabalho em docentes e, particularmente, se os docentes mais e menos criativos assumem diferentes perfis motivacionais no trabalho. Foram avaliadas as perceções de 120 professores do Norte de Portugal. A motivação para o trabalho foi avaliada pela Escala Multi-Fatorial no Trabalho e para as características criativas usou-se a Escala de Personalidade Criativa. Os resultados mostram correlações baixas e positivas, mas estatisticamente significativas entre as dimensões da motivação para o trabalho e a personalidade criativa. Constituídos quatro grupos de docentes, em função das classificações na personalidade criativa, uma análise de variância aponta diferenças estatisticamente significativas em três das quatro dimensões da motivação de acordo com a criatividade dos docentes. Tendencialmente, a motivação para o trabalho aumenta à medida que os docentes se consideram mais criativos. Este estudo permite reflexões, nomeadamente enfatizando criatividade e motivação na formação de docentes e de outros agentes do contexto escolar.

“…Based on the interviews, 6 potential creative needs were identified: beauty, strength, openness, communication, individuality and pleasure. [6] The research work of Stanko-Kaczmarek, M. the Effect of Intrinsic Motivation on the Affect and Evaluation of the Creative Process Among Fine Arts Students, published in the Creativity Research Journal (2012), is important to understand the impact of internal motivation on the subjective assessment and creative process of people, on the example of young artists. The author considers the relationship between motivation, impact and evaluation of the creative process as a dynamic one.…”
