New paper on children’s creativity and curiosity

In this new paper, we examined primary school children’s self-perceived creative pursuits in daily activities and looked at the relationship between children’s self-reported creativity and curiosity. We found that children’s responses fitted nine domains where creativity can be exercised, most frequently craft, DIY, and visual art. Domain-specific differences were present between “high” and “low” creative children and between boys and girls. Children’s self-reported creativity and curiosity were highly positively correlated. There were no pronounced gender differences except in creative pursuits’ domains
