This resulted in a 198-item list, which was rated from 1 (least creative) to 11 (most creative) by another group of 50 college students. Ninety items were retained--those with a mean creativity rating of over 5.7, and those with a standard deviation below 2.7 (indicating reliability of judges ratings). | |||

The number of times the activity occurred during adolescence and adulthood was rated, with the exclusion of activities required as part of required school coursework. Six subscales were identified: fine arts; crafts; literature; music; performing arts; and mathematics-science. Internal consistency reliability ranged from .63 to .89. | |||
Three subscales and fifteen miscellaneous items did not meet the standards for reliability and discriminant validity. (Each subscale and the 90-item inventory are appended.) (GDC) | |||
