    This study shows that reinforcement and practice can improve creative behaviors in elementary students. These methods enhanced scores on creativity tests, suggesting practical classroom applications for teachers.

    Area of Science:

    • Educational Psychology
    • Cognitive Development
    • Creative Thinking Research

    Background:

    • Creative thinking is crucial for student development.
    • Traditional educational methods may not fully foster creativity.
    • Understanding how to enhance creative behaviors in children is essential.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the impact of reinforcement and practice on specific creative behaviors in elementary students.
    • To determine if these interventions improve overall creativity scores.
    • To assess the practical applicability of these methods in a classroom setting.

    Main Methods:

    • Applied instructions, reinforcement (team points), and practice to four defined creative behaviors.
    • Measured changes in response quantity (fluency), response type (flexibility), response detail (elaboration), and response uniqueness (originality).

  • Utilized Torrance's tests of creativity to assess overall creative gains.

    • Main Results:

    • All four measured creative behaviors (fluency, flexibility, elaboration, originality) were under experimental control.
    • Students demonstrated significant increases in their creativity scores following the intervention.
    • The procedures effectively enhanced multiple facets of creative expression.

    Conclusions:

    • Reinforcement and practice are effective strategies for improving specific creative behaviors in students.
    • These interventions positively impact overall creativity as measured by standardized tests.
    • The described experimental procedures show promise for practical implementation by classroom teachers to foster creativity.
