What it’s about

In this paper, we test the extent to which creativity performance depends on the specific task used, and whether this pattern generalizes across cultures.

Abstract

The article examines task specificity in creativity by comparing performance patterns across cultural groups. Rather than assuming a single, task-invariant creativity trait, it evaluates how strongly outcomes depend on the task format and demands. Findings support nuanced interpretations of creativity scores and emphasize the need for multi-task assessment designs in cross-cultural work.
