Abstract

Creativity is often defined as production of relevant and useful novelty. However, novelty is not a binary state but a continuum that ranges from mere incrementation of what already exists to re-imagining the nature of existence. The psychology of novelty production goes beyond cognitive processes and encompasses not only personal properties (e.g. personality) but also cultural factors such as norms. Defining authentic creativity and working out how to support it in education and training is the real challenge for modern psychology.
