Dudek, Stephanie Z.; Verreault, Rene
Creativity Research Journal, v2 n1-2 p64-86 Spr 1989
Highly creative children (n=100) and uncreative children (n=100) were selected from 1,450 fifth- and sixth- grade students. Comparisons using data from the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking revealed significant differences in terms of quantity and quality of primary process content. Girls gave more libidinal content and boys gave more aggressive content. (Author/PB)
