This study validates a hybrid creativity model across Russian regions, finding general creativity and domain-specific factors. Regional differences in creativity are linked to cultural values and openness to change.
Area of Science:
- Psychology
- Sociology
Background:
- The hybrid model of creativity posits distinct domains reflecting a general creativity factor.
- Understanding regional variations in creativity and its motivators is crucial.
Purpose of the Study:
- To test the hybrid model of creativity in Russian populations.
- To investigate socio-demographic and value correlates of creativity across regions.
Main Methods:
- Multigroup confirmatory analysis was used to validate the creativity model.
- Data were collected from representative samples in Central Russia and the North Caucasus (N = 2,046).
- Correlation analyses examined relationships between creativity, values, and socio-demographic factors.
Main Results:
- The hybrid model with six domains and a general creativity factor demonstrated invariance across regions.
- Central Russia scored higher on global creativity and all six domains compared to the North Caucasus.
- Openness to Change values positively correlated with creativity, while Conservation values negatively correlated.
Conclusions:
- The hybrid model of creativity is applicable across diverse cultural contexts within Russia.
