ABSTRACT In a study combining methodological elements from cognitive psychology and social anthropology, we worked with professional contemporary dancers making choreographic movement material to investigate the effects of working with others during improvisation. Dancers improvised alone, in pairs, and in a trio, they self-reported the number of new movement ideas created within two and four minutes, and self-rated ease, interest, originality, and clarity. Within two minutes, higher ratings were assigned in the unfamiliar pair than the familiar pair condition but there was no effect of group size on the number of ideas created. Within four minutes, more ideas were created in the solo condition than the pair condition with no effect of group size on ratings. Open-ended responses suggested that the quality and relevance of the ideas increased in the duo and the trio conditions. The conclusions point to emergent aspects of relations between persons as fundamental to creativity.

当代舞中的关系创造力和即兴创作

摘要 在一项结合认知心理学和社会人类学的方法论要素的研究中，我们与专业的当代舞者合作制作舞蹈动作材料，以研究在即兴创作中与他人合作的效果。舞者单独、成对和三人即兴表演，他们自我报告在两到四分钟内创造的新动作创意的数量，以及自我评价的轻松性、兴趣、独创性和清晰度。在两分钟内，陌生对的评分高于熟悉的对，但小组规模对产生的想法数量没有影响。在四分钟内，在单独条件下创建的想法比在对评级没有影响的配对条件下创建的想法更多。开放式回答表明，在二人组和三人组条件下，想法的质量和相关性有所提高。结论指出人与人之间关系的新兴方面是创造力的基础。
