Which of the following traits are more associated with creativity ?
(1) Low intelligence and persistence.
(2) Moderate to high intelligence and curiosity.
(3) Non-conformity and persistence.
Codes :
Answer: B
The traits more associated with creativity are (2) and (3).
Research on creative people finds that a moderate to high level of intelligence is needed (the threshold idea: above an IQ of about 120 intelligence adds little more), together with curiosity and openness to experience (2). Creative people also tend to be independent and non-conforming and to persist in the face of difficulty (3).
Low intelligence is not associated with creativity, so statement (1) is wrong, and every option that includes it is incorrect.
