Story-Telling: A Method for Assessing Children's Creativity.
Hennessey, Beth Ann; Amabile, Teresa M.
Journal of Creative Behavior, v22 n4 p235-46 1988
The subjective judgment of observers was used to assess verbal creativity. Students, aged 5-10, told a story to accompany a picture series. Teachers rated the stories relative to one another. Interjudge reliability of the creativity measure was highly satisfactory. Two subsequent studies affirmed the results, with slightly lower interjudge reliability. (JDD)
