摘要:AbstractA sample of 119 children attending primary (second and fourth grades) and secondary (last grade) schools were administered a brief story about the realization of a single drawing by two different authors (one creative and the other not) and a semantic differential scale of adjectives to describe a creative person. Results showed that children were able to catch differences between creative and non creative drawings. The semantic differential scale confirmed that children were able to outline a profile of the creative person. Some age-related differences emerged: younger children overestimated the aesthetic value of the drawings and were more focused on personality traits linked to social desirability.
