Summary
Creativity is one of the most valued human traits:
it is the capacity to produce new concepts, ideas, inventions, art. Creativity is perhaps a continuum of everyday creativity to an eminent one. Creativity may be tested by Torrance tests of creative thinking. According to the investment theory, creativity requires
- intellectual abilities,
- knowledge,
- ways of thinking,
- personality,
- motivation, and
- environments.
- openness,
- consciousness,
- impulsivity,
- autonomy, and
- a higher score of Eysencks’s psychoticism
Some individual studies are more optimistic. There is now some early research aimed at a genetic basis of creativity. The first candidate genes have been identified. Creativity has long been associated with mental disorder. A familial cosegregation of both schizophrenia and bipolar disorder with creativity is suggested. Some psychosocial limits of scientific creativity exist.
Key words:
creativity, personality, neuroimaging, candidate genes, mental disorder, psychosocial limits.
