However, recent research has raised questions regarding factor analysis of the TTCT-F due to poor discriminant validity and artificial clustering of indices. Additionally, the original meta-analysis did not include databases of dissertations and theses. In this study, we replicated and extended the meta-CFA study of the TTCT-F using 56 correlation matrices from 45 studies and a total of 11,142 participants. We investigated whether the problem of discriminant validity, participants’ age, the use of Form A or B, and the use of standardized or raw scores influence the factor structure. Our results show that a two-factor structure remains stronger than a one-factor structure in both replication and extension studies, and this conclusion is robust to score type, participant age, and issues related to discriminant validity. However, further research is needed to determine if this structure applies to less commonly used Form B, which had different factor loadings from Form A. We discuss the implications of our results for creativity research, the psychometrics of TTCT-F, and gifted identification.","PeriodicalId":48144,"journal":{"name":"Creativity Research Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2023-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48736223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In response, some have called for battery-based approaches. Recently, digital games have emerged as a potential alternative, offering increased scalability and improved ecological validity. This article presents CREA: a new, scalable, game-based assessment suite. CREA includes crea.tiles and crea.blender, non-verbal games featuring both divergent and convergent thinking modes, as well as crea.ideas – the Alternative Uses Task, a standard test of divergent thinking, and crea.logic – a test of abstract reasoning. The novel convergent and divergent thinking game modes are constructed within the same contextual environment and with theoretically motivated differences in game-prompts to understand and generalize from the emerging elicited behaviors. In this study, 408 participants completed the CREA suite and selected validation measures, representing the largest game-based validation study to date. Both convergent and discriminant validity is demonstrated for crea.tiles with respect to standard tests, with correlations ranging from r = .1–.4. Having CREA freely accessible, we aim to broaden the accessibility of creativity assessment to researchers, educators, and the general public and through this scaleup validate the rich creative behavioral patterns observed in this study. Plain Language Summary Creative thinking is an essential attribute for success in the 21st century, yet it is difficult to measure because it is complex and contextual. Traditional pen and paper tests of creative thinking are the status quo and are backed up by years of research; however, there are well-known issues with these tests such as (1) they are difficult to scale up, as they require expert human-raters to evaluate the responses; (2) many of them are verbal, which is not necessarily fair within a culturally and linguistically diverse population; and (3) there are still fundamental open questions about what they actually measure. Digital, game-based creativity assessments represent an emerging alternative to conventional creativity tests, presenting the potential for increasing scalability and improving the quality of the results. This article presents CREA: a new, scalable, suite of game-based assessments. CREA includes crea.tiles and crea.blender - non-verbal games featuring several game modes, as well as crea.ideas - a standard test of divergent thinking, and crea.logic - a test of abstract reasoning. Participants (n=408) were university students from North America. They completed the CREA suite and a series of validation measures. The results from the study indicate that the current, freely accessible, version of the CREA suite demonstrated sufficient validity to be used by researchers and practitioners as a scalable, creativity assessment instrument for automated figural assessment of divergent an","PeriodicalId":48144,"journal":{"name":"Creativity Research Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44246234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, virtual teamwork is still a challenge for creative collaboration. Research on CVT started decades ago, yet an overview of the field is lacking. This paper addresses this gap by presenting a bibliometric analysis, including 153 high-quality publications, to provide insights into the development of CVT research across disciplines and a thematic content analysis of trends in research streams and measurements. The results list the most impactful authors and journals, research disciplines and trends, as well as measurements of CVT. Research on CVT is growing exponentially and is conducted across various disciplines, mostly in education, followed by computer science, management and psychology. The results of the bibliometric analysis suggest a scattered research landscape, which calls for more interdisciplinary research, including common measurements for CVT across scientific fields. Plain Language Summary Creativity is one of the most essential and sought-after capabilities in the 21st century. However, fostering creativity in virtual teamwork (CVT) has always been a challenge for education and in business. CVT has been investigated from various perspectives, but a comprehensive picture of research on this topic is missing. To address this research gap, this paper presents a bibliometric analysis. The analysis identifies different disciplines and research streams dealing with CVT, research trends, the methods and measurements applied, and most relevant papers and authors in the respective fields. In total, 153 articles were reviewed. The bibliometric analysis reveals a scattered research landscape, which calls for more interdisciplinary research in the future. The following research disciplines have predominantly investigated CVT: education, computer science, management and psychology. However, different disciplines have similar ways to measure creativity, which is a promising starting point for future interdisciplinary studies","PeriodicalId":48144,"journal":{"name":"Creativity Research Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44841251","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
