Creativity Diagnostics Within the Framework of Personality Assessment

  • Heribert Wienkamp

摘要

Creativity diagnostics can indeed be conducted in isolation and independently, but should not be carried out separately from personality diagnostics. For this purpose, considerations must always be made as to which other personality traits “resonate” in this specific situation and could potentially influence the individual’s creativity. Once this question is conclusively clarified and answered, a selection must be made from the known and available instruments of personality diagnostics, and the obtained results should be interpreted as a comprehensive finding. Nonetheless, personality tests hold a special, if not decisive, significance in this context, as they effectively and sustainably support the operationalization and measurement of constructs, provide “flank protection” to the diagnostic process, and enable or even promote something like differential diagnostics.
