IMPLICIT THEORIES OF CREATIVITY ACROSS CULTURES---Novelty and Appropriateness in
|||
One potential problem for creativity theory is whether both novelty and appropriateness are equally valid
dimensions across cultures. Taking an implicit theory approach, the authors surveyed more than 400
students from Japan, China, and the United States. Using repeated measures scenarios of cooking and
textbook products, novelty was found to be important across the three countries for evaluations of creativity.
However, the Chinese were more swayed than were the Americans by the novelty manipulation in
terms of how much they desired the products. Appropriateness was more important for Americans and
Japanese for evaluations of creativity and desire for products. Both novelty and appropriateness had large
effects. Rather than relying on assumed country variations, the authors argue that cross-cultural research
be used to understand the nature of creativity.
