This quantitative study examined the relationship between well-being and stages of the creative process, including problem identification and construction, idea generation, and idea evaluation among gifted young adults (n = 173). A sample of college honors students responded to multiple measures of well-being, creative problem-solving tasks, the Kaufman Domains of Creativity Scale (K-DOCS), and the Big Five Inventory-2. Regression models tested the association between well-being and creativity with "positive affect," "negative affect," and "long-term well-being" as the dependent variables. The independent variables included "gender," "GPA," "personality," "self-reported creativity," and "problem identification and construction performance," "idea generation performance," and "idea evaluation performance." Controlling for GPA, gender, and personality, regression analyses found that none of the creative problem-solving tasks significantly predicted well-being. However, the K-DOCS everyday factor predicted all three dependent well-being variables. These findings imply that the relationship between well-being and creativity may depend more so on a creative mindset than creative ability.
