The present study was undertaken to study of creativity in relation to TV viewing habits of secondary school students. The sample consists of 400 secondary school students of Rampur city. Verbal test of creativity and TV viewing habits questionnaire were used for this investigation. The result of this study shows that on some behalf TV viewing is negatively related to creativity but overall TV ...

The analysis of functional connectivity at rest (rFC) enables us to know how brain regions within and between networks interact. In this study, we used resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging and a creativity test of divergent thinking (DT) to investigate the relationship between creativity measured by DT and rFC. We took the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) to be the seed region and...

The Uses of Objects Task is a widely used creativity test. The test is usually scored by humans, which introduces subjectivity and individual variance into creativity scores. Here, we present a new computational method for scoring creativity: Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA), a tool used to measure semantic distance between words. 33 participants provided creative uses for 20 separate objects. We...

It has been found that design creativity is closely related with personal characteristics and design-related abilities. To verify this fact systematically, I inspected personal characteristics and learning styles. Moreover I assessed spatial perceptual ability, constructive perceptual ability and visual reasoning ability as design-related ability. Also, students were received several designrela...

1547 COVER Sunset for silicon? The push toward electronics that are smaller, faster, and more flexible requires either new inorganic and organic materials or new functionality for silicon and new transistor designs. See the special section beginning on page 1595.

This study fills the research gap in the exploration of the relationships between both proactive and reactive green innovations and green product development performance, and examines the mediating effect of green creativity. Structural equation modeling (SEM) is utilized to test the hypotheses. From the sample of 146 valid respondents, the results show that proactive green innovation positivel...

Social media are known for substantial creativity support, as they allow users exploring, creating, and sharing various types of content. Social 3D virtual worlds, such as Second Life, can also be seen as a social media that have wide possibilities for being creative. In this paper, we explore how 3D virtual worlds can support creativity in educational settings, including creativity of the coll...

We present a novel approach to the computational study of creativity, called artificial creativity. Artificial creativity promotes the study of the creative behaviour of individuals and societies in artificial societies of agents. It is similar to the approach to that taken by Artificial Life researchers involved in developing computational models. We present a framework for developing artifici...
