User:OsFish/Assessment of creativity

Assessment of creativity is the attempt to measure either the degree to which someone is creative, or the degree to which an product such as a painting or technology can be considered creative.

Assessments of individual creativity can be psychometric, such as the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking, or in the form of self-assessment, such as the Creative Behavior Inventory.

Assessments of how much a product is creative is less systematic. Broad theories of product creativity have been put forward by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi and others, but usually such assessments are on a subject-specific basis.
