An Essential Interrelationship: Healthy Self-Esteem and Productive Creativity.
Yau, Cecilia
Journal of Creative Behavior, v25 n2 p154-61 1991
This paper defines the term "self-image" or "self-esteem" and defines the term "creativity" from psychoanalytic and humanist interpretations. It then proposes the theory that a positive self-image enhances the possibilities for creative productivity or lifestyle. Practical implications for child rearing are offered. (JDD)
