Persson (2012a) correctly raises the question of how cultural biases may impact giftedness research. He alludes to East-West differences in perceptions of creativity and ways that the collectivist-individualistic approaches may lead to differences in creativity perception. In this commentary, the authors discuss different approaches, and attempt to expand research on how East and West cultures are both alike and different in their approaches to creativity. They conclude that there are certainly key differences in Eastern and Western perceptions and judgments of creativity; as Persson (2012a) argues, it is dangerous to ignore such nuances.
