Threshold hypothesis indicates :

  • A.positive correlation between intelligence and creativity upto a particular level of intelligence.
  • B.negative correlation between intelligence and creativity upto a particular level of intelligence.
  • C.curvilinear relationship between intelligence and creativity after a particular level of intelligence.
  • D.negative correlation between intelligence and creativity after a particular level of intelligence

Answer: A

The threshold hypothesis indicates a positive correlation between intelligence and creativity up to a particular level of intelligence.

Below an IQ of about 120 the two go together, since a minimum level of ability is needed for creative work. Above that threshold the relation weakens or disappears, and creativity depends on other traits. The options speaking of a negative correlation reverse the relation, and a curvilinear relation after the threshold is not what the hypothesis says.
