Using an online sample (<i>N</i> = 647), the study introduces counterfactual DT tasks, where participants are prompted to respond to how a situation can either go in their favor (positive) or against it (negative). Participants generated more original responses in the positive counterfactual DT task versus the negative one; however, they generated a higher number of ideas in the negative task compared to the positive one. Both counterfactual tasks led to higher originality and fluency as compared to a real-world DT task. Trait anxiety, especially when combined with past therapy experience or a previous mental health diagnosis, increased the number of negative counterfactual ideas. In contrast, optimism acted as a protective factor, enabling fewer ideas in the negative counterfactual task when combined with past therapy experience or a past mental health diagnosis. Our study challenges the binary view of emotional influences on creativity, highlighting the role of individual differences and experiences in shaping creative outputs. Diversifying the counterfactual DT tasks and using more refined measures of rumination and mental health history can provide further nuance to this line of research between creativity and anxiety.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":39915,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Creative Behavior","volume":"59 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144197509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Positive and negative moods were induced through memory recall, and cognitive stimulation was manipulated using cue words in varying quantities. In Study 1, participants were tasked with brainstorming about the advantages and disadvantages of having an extra thumb. The initial hypothesis, proposing that a positive mood and cognitive stimulation enhance ideational fluency, was supported through the flexibility pathway. Study 2 shifted the focus to slogan generation, emphasizing originality, which aligns with the nature of slogan generation. The hypothesis was that mood and cognitive stimulation would not impact fluency but might influence originality. Surprisingly, participants in the negative mood condition generated more slogans, challenging the common belief that positive moods consistently boost creativity. Those without cognitive stimulation also performed better in terms of originality, which is in line with past studies indicating that examples can inhibit originality.

Further, it examined the mediating effects of associative thinking—conceptualized as a common empathy-creativity resource—on the relationship between empathy facets and creative writing. Two-hundred twenty participants (university students) completed performance-based tasks and self-report measures of creative writing, associative thinking, and empathy. A latent mediation model implemented in Structural Equation Modeling indicated two effects of empathy facets on creative writing, with perspective-taking emerging as a positive predictor. Additionally, peripheral responsivity (i.e., affect sharing in indirect contexts) exhibited an indirect positive influence on creative writing, mediated by associative thinking. In summary, associative thinking appears to be an important ingredient in both empathy and creative writing, while cognitive empathy, specifically intuitive perspective-taking, contributes significantly to creative writing skills.
