Two studies investigated the effect of a short improvisation intervention (theatrical improvisation in Study 1, musical improvisation in Study 2) on negotiation processes and outcomes. The expectation was that an improvisation exercise, compared to a control condition in which participants engaged in jigsaw puzzling, would result in better negotiation agreements via higher levels of divergent thinking. Results showed that improvisation exercise increased participants' divergent thinking, compared to the control condition. The effects on negotiation processes and outcomes, however, only partly supported the predictions. In Study 2, improvisation exercise had an indirect influence on negotiation outcomes via divergent thinking, and in Study 1 improvisation exercise did influence divergent thinking but did not influence negotiation outcomes. So improvisation exercise increases divergent thinking, and sometimes this heightened divergent thinking results in higher negotiation outcomes.

Curiosity has long been extolled as a seed for employee creativity. This causality is plausible when considering curiosity as a stable trait. However, curiosity can also oscillate as a transitory state, thus complicating the causal sequence between such state curiosity and creativity. To clarify the causal ordering and achieve a refined understanding of what role state curiosity plays in the creative process, we utilize a random‐intercept cross‐lagged panel model (RI‐CLPM) to estimate the reciprocal effects between state curiosity and creativity at the within‐person level. With a full longitudinal panel data across three‐time points (N = 400), we find that at the within‐person level, state curiosity has a positive lagged effect on creativity and creativity also shows a positive lagged effect on state curiosity. This research highlights that curiosity and creativity, in fact, mutually reinforce each other.

The creative achievements of eminent genius in Chinese history are of enormous interest. There is, however, uncertainty about the accurate measurement of eminence and creativity. The most tenable measurement approach is historiometric. Nearly all historiometric research on eminence and creative achievement has involved Western samples. The present investigation used historiometry to test two hypotheses about creative achievement with Eastern samples. These point to developmental adversity (DA) and the “madness‐to‐genius link” thought to facilitate unusual cognitive patterns and thus a creative capacity. Here, historiometric methods were applied to a sample of 55 eminent scientists in the Chinese Tang and Song dynasties. DA and mental illness did not significantly predict Chinese scientists' creative outcomes. Other diversifying experiences, such as religious beliefs, migration, and role model mentors, had a positive relationship with eminence and creative achievement. The Tang and Song dynasties had different religious structures, so religion had a different impact on the creative achievements of scientists. In the Tang Dynasty, religion could positively predict the creative achievements of scientists, while in the Song Dynasty it could not. These findings warrant further research using other eminent creators in Chinese history.

The historically male‐dominated discourse encompassing artistic creativity has often failed to acknowledge the voices and contributions of women. Female artists continue to face barriers in terms of accessing opportunities, attaining positions of prominence, and earning potential, in comparison with their male counterparts. This inequality is deleterious to female artists and society. Therefore, it is important to understand the relationship between artistic creativity and gender, with a particular emphasis on elite female artistic exemplars. The present qualitative study utilized in‐depth semi‐structured interviews, in accordance with the methodology of Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis, to explore the role of gender in relation to artistic creativity among 10 eminent Australian female visual artists. Findings indicated that participants were affected detrimentally by gender‐based inequality on personal, professional, and sociocultural levels. Their experiences as women, however, also inspired and informed their artistic creativity aesthetically and conceptually. The findings challenge patriarchal conceptualizations of the “male artistic genius” by presenting a female‐focused counternarrative. Implications for educating, supporting, and empowering current and emerging female artists to excel are discussed.

This experimental research investigates the creativity of anonymous video‐based groups through a series of collaborative divergent and convergent thinking stages of innovation. A sample of 113 undergraduate students participated in small groups of three or four to complete a creative problem‐solving task in either anonymous or identified conditions. The findings revealed that although anonymity did not positively impact the divergent thinking task of brainstorming, it significantly enhanced creativity in the convergent thinking process of collaborative idea refinement. Furthermore, the ideas in the refinement stage were higher in originality, elaboration, overall quality, and good quality compared with the generation and selection task. The participants' attentional focus was critical in creating high‐quality ideas by mediating the path from collaborative ideation to refinement. The current study contributes to the creativity literature by highlighting the importance of anonymous collaborative idea refinement as the teams proceed through multiple stages of convergent and divergent thinking processes.
