How does environment and upbringing impact creativity development from childhood to adolescence?

Started Apr. 16, 2025

Abstract or project description

Today, the ability to be creative is necessary to succeed in different areas of life such as education and professional life. Creativity is the ability to come up with novel ideas and apply them across various areas. Creativity can be measured in different ways such as fluency, originality, and divergent thinking. Recently, there has been an increase in research on creativity and what factors influence creativity. The results of the research have found that factors like environment, genetics, and education can impact how creativity can develop. One common limitation in the research is that a lot of the results are not generalizable and cannot fully represent an entire community. In my project I will analyze different studies and what factors in environment and upbringing impact creativity development during childhood.
