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? In hierarchical regressions, divergent thinking creativity, creative self-efficacy, creative self-concept, and task-related motivation each uniquely predicted more positive self-assessed creative performance. → Lebuda 2025

q2 · i? · associational · r2
Hierarchical multiple regression (N = 425) predicting self-assessed creative performance in steps of creative ability, real-life creativity, core personality, surface personality, and task-related factors; the final model showed these four predictors with significant unique effects.
"People with higher divergent thinking creativity, creative self-efficacy, creative self-concept, and task-related motivation tended to self-assess their creative performance more positively;"
