Numeration Of Attribute On The Products Of Individual Creative Thinking

This study paid more attentions on researching the effects on the result of creative thinking induced by enumeration of attribute and its influencing factors in the Chinese culture background.Soochow University undergraduates were involved in this study. We conducted two experiments,and the dependent variabl is measured by the four indexs of divergent thinking:fluency, originality, flexibility and persistency.The first experiment was to test the effects on the result of creative thinking induced by all kinds of variant of enumeration.60Volunteers were divided into several groups, and then randomly assigned to experimental treatment at different levels(enumeration of attribute, enumeration of wishes.numeration of shortcomings,controlled group) for testing the difference in the result of individual creative thinking under different types of creating techniques.The second experiment was to discuss the influencing factors of enumeration of attribute.144Volunteers were divided to take part in this experiment,which studied the e ffects on results of personal creative thinking which induced by the size of a group(3people/6people), the type of a group (nominal group/Interactive group)and the type of a method (enumeration of attribute/controlled group) on the results of personal creative thinking.Some conclusions had been elicited through the two studys:1. The products of creative thinking produced by enumeration of attribute group is much more than that of controlled group in fluency, originality, flexibility and persistency,and is more than that of other groups in originality.2. There is a sifnificant difference in different types of group. The products of creative thinking produced by the nominal group is much more than that of interactive group in fluency, flexibility and persistency.3. There is a sifnificant difference in different sizes of a groups. The products of creative thinking produced by the3people group is much more than that of the6people group in fluency, originality and persistency.4. There existed interactions between the sizes of group and the types of group. The products of creative thinking is sifnificant in persistency. There existed interactions between the types of group and the types of method. The products of creative thinking is sifnificant in flexibility and persistency. There existed interactions among the types of group, sizes of group and the types of method. The products of creative thinking is sifnificant in fluency and persistency.
