Evidence¶

Vezzali 2016¶

Vezzali, L., Goclowska, M., Crisp, R. J., & Stathi, S. (2016). On the Relationship between Cultural Diversity and Creativity in Education: The Moderating Role of Communal versus Divisional Mindset. http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/

q3 · i1 · causal · r2

Omnibus test from the same 2 (Diversity: present vs. absent) × 2 (Mindset: communal vs. divisional) between-subjects ANOVA in the randomized experiment; the article reports "the two-way interaction was significant" with η2p = .03. Creativity was square-root transformed for analysis.

"Moreover, the two-way interaction was significant, F(1, 145) = 4.68, p = .032 η2p = .03."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Cultural diversity increases schoolchildren's creativity when a communal mindset is salient — related
• Cultural diversity does not increase schoolchildren's creativity when a divisional mindset emphasizing group distinctions is salient — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• Working in culturally diverse groups on a cooperative task increases schoolchildren's creativity (originality) compared with homogeneous groups — related
