Abstract

Team composition affects the creativity of teams in design tasks. Existing research presents mixed results on the impact of team composition on creativity. We conducted an experiment to investigate the effect of three different team categories on design creativity: designers, designers and non-designers (mixed teams), and non-designers. 18 volunteer dyads completed a short design task by generating solution ideas. Three expert judges scored the ideas for originality, usefulness, and compliance with requirements. The judges also assigned independent subjective creativity scores. Fluency and rareness were also calculated. Findings indicate that mixed dyadic teams score highest in almost all variables, thereby suggesting that design is no different than other domains, thus adding to the literature that favors diverse teams for increased creativity.

学科多样性对二元团队设计创意产生的影响
团队构成影响团队在设计任务中的创造力。现有的研究对团队构成对创造力的影响给出了不同的结果。我们进行了一项实验,调查了三种不同的团队类别对设计创造力的影响:设计师、设计师和非设计师(混合团队)、非设计师。18名志愿者通过提出解决方案的想法完成了一个简短的设计任务。三位专家评委对创意的独创性、实用性和符合要求进行了评分。评委们还对创意进行了独立的主观评分。流畅性和稀缺性也被计算在内。研究结果表明,混合二元团队在几乎所有变量中得分最高,因此表明设计与其他领域没有什么不同,从而增加了支持多样化团队以增加创造力的文献。

期刊介绍: Design Studies is a leading international academic journal focused on developing understanding of design processes. It studies design activity across all domains of application, including engineering and product design, architectural and urban design, computer artefacts and systems design. It therefore provides an interdisciplinary forum for the analysis, development and discussion of fundamental aspects of design activity, from cognition and methodology to values and philosophy. Design Studies publishes work that is concerned with the process of designing, and is relevant to a broad audience of researchers, teachers and practitioners. We welcome original, scientific and scholarly research papers reporting studies concerned with the process of designing in all its many fields, or furthering the development and application of new knowledge relating to design process. Papers should be written to be intelligible and pertinent to a wide range of readership across different design domains. To be relevant for this journal, a paper has to offer something that gives new insight into or knowledge about the design process, or assists new development of the processes of designing.
