The Psychology of Creativity

Course Description

Course information provided by the 2024-2025 Catalog. Courses of Study 2024-2025 is scheduled to publish mid-June.

This course is designed for doctoral students. It is a comprehensive introduction to research on creativity (the process of generating ideas that are both novel and useful). We will approach creativity from a number of different perspectives (e.g., personality, cognition, emotion, decision-making, culture), touch on related constructs (e.g., inspiration, voice, proactive behavior, issue selling), and have broader discussions of contemporary topics related to doing research (e.g., methods, replicability, collaboration). There will be heavy focus on understanding fundamental theoretical advances in this area and on building research skills.
