ABSTRACT

Education and creativity are interrelated, and motivation is regarded as a factor influencing creativity. On the other hand, it seems to be a connection between creative achievements and one’s perceptions about oneself including self-acceptance. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of educational motivation and self-acceptance on creativity among high school students. Three hundred and sixty-one high school students in Saveh city, central Iran, participated in this correlational study. The participants filled out the Ryff Scale of Psychological Well-being (RSPWB-18), Abedi Creativity Questionnaire, and Harter’s Classroom Affect and Motivational Scale. The findings indicated a significant relationship between students’ educational motivation and their creativity (P <.01), but no significant relationship between self-acceptance and creativity. According to the results of this study, creativity of students increases along with their educational motivation.

摘要

教育和创造力是相互联系的，动机被认为是影响创造力的因素。另一方面，这似乎是创作成就与一个人对自己的看法（包括自我接纳）之间的联系。这项研究的目的是调查高中学生的教育动机和自我接受能力对创造力的影响。伊朗中部萨维市的361名高中学生参加了这项相关研究。参与者填写了Ryff心理健康量表（RSPWB-18），Abedi创造力调查表以及Harter的课堂情感和动机量表。研究结果表明，学生的教育动机与创造力之间存在显着的关系（P<.01），但自我接受与创造力之间没有显着关系。根据这项研究的结果，学生的创造力随着他们的教育动机而增加。
