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.
q2 i? Using Torrance's creativity indices of fluency, flexibility, originality and quality, Hawlina et al. (2017) found perspective taking increased the creativity of interactions between dyads in non-real-world, non-domain-based discussions. → Gardiner Paul 2020

The article reports, citing Hawlina et al. (2017), that "perspective taking increased the creativity of the interactions between dyads" in non-real-world, non-domain-based discussions, measured with Torrance's fluency, flexibility, originality and quality indices. No effect size is printed.
"Adopting Torrance's creativity indices of fluency, flexibility, originality and quality for measurement, Hawlina et al. (2017) concluded that perspective taking increased the creativity of the interactions between dyads working in non-real world non domain-based discussions."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Group diversity problems stem from coordination failures rather than categorisation differences — related
- Reading fiction gives at most a very small gain on theory-of-mind and social-cognition tasks, and the single-passage literary-fiction effect did not replicate — related
- Children exhibited creative and communicative ways of thinking and working in collaborative tasks — related
- Visible real-time gaze feedback improves collaborative-process coordination, especially information pooling, in dyadic knowledge integration tasks — related
- Dyads showing more Listen/understand and Extend/revise behaviour produced more original ideas regardless of dyad type, while no social-emotional perspective-taking measure was significantly associated with originality — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
