Abstract

The Test for Creative Thinking-Drawing Production (TCT-DP) has been widely used for the creative potential assessment. However, there are no tables of normative values for the different years of schooling and gender in the Portuguese private schools. This is our contribution in this work. Take part in this study 294 individuals from Portugal, with age range from 15 to 22 years (M = 17.7, SD = 1.64), most of them were women (55%) and was enrolled in the 10th (60.6%) and 12th school year (39.4%). The t-tests performed indicate that there are no statistically significant differences between the school years for the two factors of the TCT-DP and for a total factor. Regarding gender, statistically significant differences were observed only for the conventional factor, with women having a higher mean than men. The present study is the first phase of a larger research project that aims to characterize the levels of creativity and elaboration of normative tables of students of private schools.
