Description
Wisdom has been described as an integration of the affective, conative, and cognitive aspects of human abilities in response to life’s tasks. Creativity has been defined as acts of creation that express the uniqueness of the person. Claxton merges these constructs by describing wisdom as advanced creativity. Thirty-eight volunteers completed a creativity inventory and a wisdom scale. Both instruments yielded an overall score and several factor scores. Significant correlation coefficients between totals and various factors supported the hypothesis that perceived creativity is related to wisdom.
