This article reviews the development of computational models of creativity where social interactions are central. We refer to this area as computational social creativity. Its context is described, including the broader study of creativity, the computational modeling of other social phenomena, and computational models of individual creativity. Computational modeling has been applied to a number...

As a well-recognized and widely adopted emotional regulation strategy, cognitive reappraisal has generally been proven to be efficient. However, the cognitive mechanism underlying regulatory efficiency, particularly the role of creativity, in cognitive reappraisal is unclear. Although previous studies have evaluated the relationship between creativity and reappraisal from the perspectives of ge...

How are computers typically perceived in co-creativity scenarios? And how does this affect how we evaluate computational creativity research systems that use cocreativity? Recent research within computational creativity considers how to attribute creativity to computational agents within co-creative scenarios. Human evaluation forms a key part of such attribution or evaluation of creative contr...

One of the most contentious areas:in creativity theory is the question of domain specificity. How we conceptualize creativityas something that transcends content domains, or as something that varies depending on the domain in question has important implications for both creativity research and creativity training programs. The Amusement Park Theoretical (APT) model of creativity is the first cr...

We examine the black box of creativity, entrepreneurship and economic development by asking about the mechanisms through which creativity can influence economic development in cities. We propose that, like the knowledge spillover theory of entrepreneurship, creativity spillovers occur and can be slowed by a creativity filter. We examine how creativity and entrepreneurship, and creativity and a ...

The typical creative process varies, not only with the domain of activity (for example, artistic creativity differs from that in science, which differs, in turn, from that in business and industry), but also with the nature of the particular situation in the domain. For example, a business executive’s creative positioning of a company for success in the long-term future differs significantly fr...

T hroughout history, creativity has been an important factor for cultural and technological evolution. Artists, writers, musicians, scientists, inventors and others have practiced their creativity individually and in collaborations with others. Depending on the political and socioeconomic environment in different societies creativity has been celebrated during certain periods and suffocated dur...

An abnormal facilitation of the spreading activation within semantic networks is thought to under-lie schizophrenics' remote associations and referential ideas. In normal subjects, elevated magical ideation (MI) has also been associated with a style of thinking similar to that of schizotypal subjects. We thus wondered whether normal subjects with a higher MI score would judge "loose association...
