Prediction of Creativity based on Student's Brain Executive Function

Creativity as a prominent human characteristic and its relationship with different variables reflected in various studies, but not so much with BEF.
Aim: The purpose of this study was to check the relation between creativity and brain executive functions in a sample of Saghez’s guidance school students, based on contradicting results.
318 guidance school students completed four questionnaires: Abedi’s creativity test, Wechsler's intelligent subscale tests of reasoning and memory digit, and Andre Rey's organization test. Simple correlation and multiple regression tests were used to analyze the data.
The findings of this study showed significant relationship between reasoning and creativity (r=0.149) and could predict 2.43 of its variance. There was a positive relation between flexibility and reasoning (r=0.198) and indirect memory digits (r=0.156).
This study showed that brain executive functions, specifically reasoning can predict creativity. This would provide implications for fostering students’ capabilities and the how of thises relations.
