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? The review reports, citing Haas et al. (2018), little or no correlation between creative performance and self-perceived creativity, and cites Alves-Oliveira et al. (2021) that only 8% of creative training programs evaluate creative performance. → Sébastien Miravete 2024
Evidence¶
Sébastien Miravete 2024¶
Sébastien Miravete, André Tricot. (2024). Are Some People Generally More Creative Than Others? A Systematic Review of Fifty Years' Research. Educational Psychology Review. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10648-024-09926-6
q2 · i? · review · r3
The review reports this second-hand from Haas et al.'s meta-analysis; it also reports "only 8% of creative training programs evaluate students' creative performances" (Alves-Oliveira et al., 2021). No correlation coefficient is printed, so no effect size is coded.
"In their meta-analysis, Haas et al. (2018) found little or no correlation between creative performance and how people perceive their creativity."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Learning-process and psychological constructs correlate only weakly with aggregate final artistic performance — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
- Teachers' ratings of children's creativity correlate poorly with psychometric performance, and teachers tend to prefer appropriate answers over novel ones — related
