    This study found correlations between creative thinking skills and psycholinguistic abilities in third graders. Specifically, figural creativity aspects linked with auditory and visual processing, and verbal creativity linked with manual expression.

    Area of Science:

    • Educational Psychology
    • Cognitive Development
    • Creative Thinking Research

    Background:

    • Understanding the relationship between creative thinking and psycholinguistic abilities is crucial for educational interventions.
    • Early identification of strengths and weaknesses in these areas can inform targeted support for students.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the correlations between specific subtests of the Illinois Test of Psycholinguistic Abilities (ITPA) and the Torrance Tests of Thinking Creatively (TTCT).
    • To explore the relationship between figural and verbal creativity and various psycholinguistic skills in third-grade children.

    Main Methods:

    • Administered the ITPA and the TTCT (Verbal and Nonverbal, Form A) to 20 girls and 20 boys in Grade 3.
    • Analyzed the data using correlational statistics to identify significant relationships between test scores.

    Main Results:

    • Significant correlations were found between figural fluency and Auditory Reception, Visual Association, Visual Sequential Memory, and Sound Blending.
    • Figural flexibility correlated with Auditory Reception, Auditory Closure, and Sound Blending.
    • Figural originality showed a correlation with Sound Blending.
    • Figural elaboration demonstrated significant links with Auditory Reception, Visual Association, Visual Sequential Memory, Grammatic Closure, Manual Expression, Auditory Closure, and Sound Blending.
    • Manual Expression also correlated significantly with verbal fluency, flexibility, and elaboration.

    Conclusions:

    • Creative thinking skills, particularly figural aspects, are interconnected with foundational psycholinguistic abilities in young learners.
    • The findings suggest that interventions targeting specific psycholinguistic skills may positively impact creative thinking development, and vice versa.
