Subclaims¶

Reading the evidence codes

q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.

This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.

q3 i? The originality subdimension, located in the open-ended fragmenting taxonomy quadrant, shows a less pronounced developmental pattern across primary education than creativity overall. → O.T.A. Potters 2023

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2

Meta-analytic synthesis within the systematic review of 52 studies. The review reports "Less pronounced developmental patterns were found for the originality subdimension (open-ended fragmenting taxonomy quadrant)". No effect size for this contrast is printed in the available text.

"Less pronounced developmental patterns were found for the originality subdimension (open-ended fragmenting taxonomy quadrant), and for general creativity and some subdimensions when tasks with a combination of figural and verbal responses were used."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

Creativity — outcome: instruction changes it

Developmental patterns for general creativity and some subdimensions are less pronounced when tasks combine figural and verbal responses — a broader claim this one bears on
The creativity research body shows a varied picture of measurement, with open-ended integrating and open-ended fragmenting tasks most frequently used — related
