Abstract

Creativity can be expressed within different forms of representations such as writing, painting or reasoning. This paper argues the influence of creative self-efficacy on creative performance, which was measured by conducting a questionnaire and an assignment on creative performance. The results were assessed on three categories of creativity: fluency, flexibility and originality. A statistical comparison between these categories and creative self-efficacy resulted in a correlation which induces that creativity can be increased by enhancing creative self-efficacy.
