Exploring the Creative Mindset Chapter 3 Exploring the Creative Mindset In This Chapter ▶ Accepting your creative nature ▶ Becoming conscious of your consciousness ▶ Looking at states of creativity ▶ Understanding creative differences re you creative? This isn’t a trick question. If you think you’re not, this Ais unfortunate, because creativity is a universal resource, like language. You learned to speak at an early age because you had a natural facility, and you began to absorb words, then join them up, and pretty soon you could string sentences together. And while you were learning to speak, you were exploring the world in other ways: drawing, finding out how things worked, and how you could get what you wanted. All these are creative activities. If you don’t think you’re creative, it’s because somewhere along the way you became disengaged from the creative experience and acquired a belief system that defined creativity as something for other people. You can develop a cre- ative mindset. An excellent starting point is to recognise the creativity in your own environment then to expand your vision to wider horizons. Creativity comes in all shapes and sizes, and its manifestations take many different forms. Regardless of what you may be inclined to think, plenty of evidence suggests that all people are, in fact, creative in their chosen occupa- tions and their daily lives.

In gen- eral, it helps to nurture a positive and receptive attitude to evidence of cre- ative thinking. Creativity is an inbuilt response to many kinds of challenges. When a situ- ation demands it, most people are more than capable of pulling a creative rabbit out of the hat. But even if you can’t be continually creative at first, you can ensure that you make yourself aware of it and observe the creativity around you. Develop a habit of noticing the little things that stimulate your imagination. Every time you think ‘That’s clever!’ or ‘How did they do that?’ follow up by exploring your observations a bit more thoroughly. Many artists cultivate this technique as a way of keeping their vision sharp. It’s part of a wider pattern of vigilance and being curious about everything. Realising that you can’t not be creative If cold hard logic ruled the world, creative expression would have very lim- ited opportunity for appearance. Buildings would be functional, work would be endlessly dull, and leisure time would be very, very quiet. Fortunately, creativity has a tendency to burst through even the strongest barriers, and it crops up in the most unexpected places. You have creativity in your blood, even if you haven’t consciously explored it yet. Creative thinking manifests itself every time you encounter an unfamil- iar problem. You automatically enter an interrogative mode: ‘What’s this all about?’ You search your mental filing system for similar situations, and you begin to formulate hypotheses and test them: ‘It looks like one of those I dealt with before. Let’s try this. Did that work? What next?’ Next time you encounter a problem, try to step back and watch your mind at work. Note the kind of questions you ask. Consider the processes you engage as you move to the solution. Notice how you feel when you realise you’ve cracked it. As you explore creative thinking in an everyday context, whether it’s solving a cryptic crossword or assembling some flat-pack furniture, notice the emo- tions that accompany the stages of the activity, from problem to solution.

Their unique shape was Exhibiting everyday creativity Every day, you and those around you perform dozens of actions, large and small, which demonstrate creative thinking. You may find a better way to juggle your shopping bags and open the front door at the same time. You may discover a shortcut in a task you thought would take a long time. Or you may find a previously undiscovered route to a familiar destination. All these little improvements in daily life reflect your creative mind at work. And if this is happening at the most basic level, imagine what you may discover when your mind is actively engaged in seeking creative solutions. It’s salutary to consider everyday processes like these that must have taken a long time to achieve their current state. Likewise, many now-familiar products haven’t always existed in their present form, such as the humble ballpoint pen which gradually evolved from the quill pen over several generations. In daily life, notice the next time you find a new function for an old product, or a colleague does. Consider anything from using a bottle as a vase to creating funky handbags from old clothing. Then think up another new function. Knowing creativity when you see it Sometimes creativity is out in the open for all to see, and everyone recog- nises it. You may see a great film, read a stunning book or hear an exciting new song. These examples are all conspicuous creativity. But you can find less obvious evidence of creativity if you make the effort to look for it. (c) 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All Rights Reserved. 52 Part I: Laying the Foundations: Understanding Creativity Sometimes creativity is hidden from view and has to be unearthed. For example, most graffiti is an eyesore, poorly executed tags scribbled in public places for nuisance value. However, on occasion some diamonds in the rough stand out by virtue of superior thought and execution. Indeed, the American artist Jean-Michel Basquiat was discovered through his graffiti, and in the UK most people now know the work of Banksy, who uses graffiti to make incisive political statements. Next time you encounter something unusual, whether it’s a wall painting, a customised car, or the individual style worn by a teenager, don’t just dismiss it, but look beyond the surface at what’s being communicated. You may just surprise yourself. Having the creative touch In the world of art and antiques, all kinds of experts earn their livelihood through their deep knowledge of their subject. Most of the time they’re very good at what they do, identifying and dating even the most obscure artefacts in their specialist fields. However, the issue that separates the best from the rest is the ability to spot fraud. Galleries and collectors alike fear that on careful examination, a price- less piece may turn out to be a fake. In fact, this has happened many times. Specialists have even exposed as fraudulent copies works that have hung in national galleries for years. A small group of experts can tell, at just a glance, whether something is real or a fraud. In his book Blink, Malcolm Gladwell calls this form of rapid cog- nition thin-slicing. It seems that deep knowledge of a subject allows some individuals to tune in to the essence of a challenge with only the briefest exposure. Gladwell reports this phenomenon in a number of fields including medicine, when doctors are able to make accurate diagnoses with minimal information. Another manifestation of the creative touch is the talent some artists have for making good marks, where every line they draw or paint seems uniquely beautiful. The disciplines of drawing and painting are difficult to master and maintain at a high level, and most artists produce their fair share of second- rate output. Artists offer a wry compliment in the presence of genius, and grudgingly admit about the handful of truly special individuals in every gen- eration that they ‘couldn’t make a bad mark’. Picasso was one of this rare breed whose every artistic endeavour was superb. If you visit the Picasso Museum in Barcelona you can see the rapid sketches of doves Picasso made at the age of five, which caused his father – himself a skilled professional artist – to put down his brushes in deference to genius.

Indeed, sometimes the aim of thinking creatively is to end up in a new, unknown place. One well-known example of the unpredictability of the creative urge is the song ‘Yesterday’, one of the most-recorded and best-selling songs of all time. Apparently the melody came to Paul McCartney in a dream, and when he awoke, he thought it was quite good.

  • Developing Type, a History from Jung to Today
    Developing Type: A history from Jung to today Type measurement methods used today are based on the work of C.G.Jung, who commenced developing his theory of psychological types a century ago. He commenced with extraversion–introversion, and over time added the mental activities or functions of sensation, intuition, thinking and feeling. None of these terms were original; Jung provided his own definitions and distinctions.People responded to Jungʼs ideas from the very start, before the introduction of functions, and placed their own perspective on his work. This presentation takes a broad but in depth brush to the history of various interpretations and methods associated with Jungʼs typology up to the present day, commencing with Jungʼs construction and early use of his type categories, a period of two to three decades. It includes interpretations and explanations of his work by others, whether in general texts and seminars in disparate fields including society, medicine and art. Measurement (Gray and Wheelwright; Isabel Myers and Katharine Briggs) as a particular cultural and methodological approach to Jungʼs typology will also be examined. This will include the development a particular language of type from measurement results and associated texts, but also the products and orientation of instrument use and the drift to the use of the term personality type. Influences from within and without the Jungian field will also be discussed, notably David Keirseyʼs temperaments (associated with Isabel Myers, but not Jung) and John Beebeʼs archetypal approach. It is intended as a brief contribution to the current challenges to the plausibility of type dynamics and development.

  • 70 Years of the MBTI® Assessment
    70 years of the MBTI® assessment The MBTI® tool has a long and prestigious history, all of which lead to its huge success as the world’s most widely used and recognised personality tool. Katharine Briggs and Isabel Myers: the creators The MBTI questionnaire, first published in 1943, was originally developed in the United States by Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers. Katharine Briggs was inspired to start researching personality type theory when she first met Isabel’s future husband, Clarence Myers. Whilst Clarence was a very eligible match for her daughter, Katharine noticed that he had a different way of seeing the world to her and her family, and was intrigued enough to start an extensive literature review based on understanding different temperaments. It was shortly after Carl Jung’s publication of Psychological Types (1921; 1923 in English) that Katharine realised how closely his theories resembled hers, and how much more developed they were. Inspiration from Carl Jung Carl Jung was a renowned Swiss psychiatrist, and is still seen by many, along with Sigmund Freud, as one of the founding fathers of modern-day psychology. His theory of psychological types proposes that people are innately different, both in terms of the way they see the world and take in information, and how they make decisions. Briggs and Myers thought that these ideas were so useful that they wanted to make them accessible to a wider audience. TranslatingTranslating the the theory theory into into a practical a practical tool tool Driven by a desire to help people understand themselves and each other better in a post-war climate, Isabel Myers set about devising a questionnaire that would identify which psychological type a person was.

Turner Dissertation Committee Major Advisor ii Abstract Some organizational studies examining the relationship between job satisfaction, and temperament type have indicated marginal to significant correlations between the two variables (Herzberg, Mausner, and Snyderman., 2000; Keirsey, 1998; Spector, 1997. Other studies examining the relationship between job satisfaction, temperament type, job roles, and years of service have produced mixed results (Jennings, 1999). One purpose of this survey study was to examine the extent to which there is a relationship between job satisfaction and temperament of doctoral candidates and graduates. A second purpose for this survey study was to examine the extent to which there is a relationship between job satisfaction and job role. The third purpose for this survey study was to examine the extent to which the relationship between job satisfaction and job role is affected by temperament. The fourth purpose of this survey study was to examine the relationship between job satisfaction and years of service. The fifth purpose for this survey study was to examine the extent to which the relationship between job satisfaction and years of service is affected by temperament. The methodology involved a purposeful sampling of 45 doctoral candidates and graduates enrolled in cohorts 1-9 at a small, private liberal arts university in the Midwest.

  • Is Myers-Briggs up to the Job? Murad Ahmed
    February 11, 2016 10:26 am Is Myers-Briggs up to the job? Murad Ahmed Share Author alerts Print Clip Comments While the personality test devised in the 1960s remains popular, can it still claim to be relevant? ©Spencer Wilson On the first day of his new job at the management consultants McKinsey & Company, Alick Varma, then 22, was asked to take a test. The questionnaire quizzed him on aspects of his personality, asking, for instance, whether he would “rather be considered a practical person or an ingenious person?” and whether he considered himself “a ‘good mixer’ or rather quiet and reserved?” Varma, who joined McKinsey as a business analyst in October 2007, was taking the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) — a personality test that has become a rite of passage for millions of white- collar workers. Since the 1960s, when the test began to be rolled out across corporate America, more than 50 million people around the world are estimated to have taken it. Myers-Briggs has a particularly strong influence at McKinsey, according to current and former staffers (when contacted for this article, McKinsey said it does not comment on its “internal processes”.) Included in the basic biographical information supplied on the company’s staff profile pages are addresses, educational background — and MBTI personality types. When a team begins a new project, associates often start by discussing their respective personality traits — are you an “E” (extrovert) or an “I” (introvert)? ©Spencer Wilson As Varma settled into his new job at the company, working long hours alongside other ambitious overachievers, he found the insights provided by the test helpful.

  • Evaluating the Validity of Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Theory
    DOI: 10.1111/spc3.12434 ARTICLE Evaluating the validity of Myers‐Briggs Type Indicator theory: A teaching tool and window into intuitive psychology Randy Stein1 | Alexander B. Swan2 1 Cal Poly Pomona Abstract 2 Eureka College Despite its immense popularity and impressive longevity, Correspondence Randy Stein, College of Business the Myers‐Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) has existed in a Administration, Cal Poly Pomona, 3801 W parallel universe to social and personality psychology. Here, Temple Ave, Pomona, CA 91768. Email: [email protected] we seek to increase academic awareness of this incredibly popular idea and provide a novel teaching reference for its conceptual flaws. We focus on examining the validity of the Jungian‐based theory behind MBTI that specifies that people have a “true type” delineated across four dichotomies. We find that the MBTI theory falters on rigorous theoretical criteria in that it lacks agreement with known facts and data, lacks testability, and possesses internal contradictions. We further discuss what MBTI's continued popularity says about how the general public might evaluate scientific theories. 1 | INTRODUCTION Presumably, a purpose of the field of psychology is to assist the general public in becoming psychologically literate. Unfortunately, the ideas about psychology that gain the most traction with the public can lack theoretical rigor. Arguably, the most popular psychology idea in the world is the Myers‐Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). Seven decades after its inception, the administration and interpretation of the MBTI is a huge business and force in shaping the general public's perceptions of psychology, championed by the MBTI's current owners, The Myers‐Briggs Company (formerly known until late 2018 as CPP).

Há, portanto, uma interface entre Direito e Psicologia, tomando-se como paradigma a teoria dos tipos psicológicos de Carl Gustav Jung e seguidores, com os acréscimos que lhe foram feitos por Isabel Briggs Myers e Katharine Cook Briggs. Para fins de contraste, a teoria de Jung é confrontada com a tipologia psicanalítica de Freud. No âmbito jurídico, especial atenção é dada à relação das funções pensamento e sentimento com o “senso de justiça”, sugerindo- se que a teoria tridimensional do Direito, de Miguel Reale, seja a expressão jurídica do uso equilibrado das funções perceptivas e judicativas. Esta a primeira parte do trabalho. Na segunda, são analisados tipologicamente seis magistrados do Tribunal de Justiça do Estado de São Paulo, tomando-se por base sua atuação profissional, conforme por eles expressa em entrevista. A entrevista foi feita a partir de um questionário padrão, de modo a estabelecer paralelos discursivos e daí colher semelhanças e diferenças, analisadas à luz do tipo psicológico aferido. Para aferição do tipo psicológico de cada entrevistado, além da análise do conteúdo de sua fala, foi aplicado um segundo questionário, de natureza especí- fica.

  • Theory and Research Article Collection from the Bulletin of Psychological Type.Pdf
    TYPE ARCHIVE WWW.PETERGEYER.COM.AU PETER GEYER Research and Theory A collection of articles published in the APTi Bulletin of Psychological Type as Interest Area Coordinator for Research and Theory 2006–2010 1. Research and Theory, From Inside and Outside It's an honour to be asked to undertake the role of APTi Interest Area Coordinator for Research and Theory, which really starts off with this article. What follows are some of my current thoughts The MBTI, as a practical implementation of C.G.Jung's theory of psychological types, requires close attention to both research/theory and practice in order to work effectively. Sometimes this means attention to what aspect of theory works, what doesn't, and why. An old saw states "there's nothing so practical as a good theory." Isabel Myers once reflected on the natural tendency for intuitives to change aspects of her ideas and practice. This was naturally a good thing, but sometimes she wished that inquiry was made into why she did what she did, before changing things. This is a fundamental principle of research anywhere and involves investigation of present and past. Sometimes we have to separate research and theory from practice in order to work out what the implications are of the theory or research results and its consistencies or otherwise of other ideas. MBTI and type–related conferences may therefore make an unintentional mistake if they require their presenters to provide practical hints in their presentations. I've seen this requirement regarding some recent events in various countries, Often the knowledge presented by a researcher or theoretician is practical in itself in terms of developing personal understanding; other times it can require a person other than the presenter of a well-developed idea or piece of theory to apply the learning.

He called it "the fruit of nearly twenty years' work in the domain of practical psychology," and in his autobiography he wrote: "This work sprang originally from my need to define the ways in which my outlook differed from Freud's and Adler's.
