Creativity stimulation techniques release_342zu4wqrrahhfnjplwge7szei

Abstract

The purpose of this thesis is to compare the relative effectiveness of several techniques for encouraging creative problem solving by individuals working alone. To this end the concept 'Creativity Stimulation Technique1 was coined. Chapter One contains an exploration of the conceptual and theoretical implications of the Creativity Stimulation Technique or C.S.T. This chapter provides a conceptual framework for the chapters to follow. Chapter Two brings together a diverse and hopefully comprehensive collection of published empirical studies which have tested aspects of the effectiveness of various techniques. Chapter Three describes the experimental methodology which was used to provide a comparative test of several different C.S.T.'s. Chapter Four describes the results of the experiment. Finally, Chapter Five discusses the results, develops conclusions and suggests implications of the research for future studies.
