Extracto
To put creative ideas and insights into action, people need to overcome obstacles, monitor their processes, and effectively evaluate the steps they take. Across two studies (N = 832 and N = 843), we explored the structure, correlates, and cross-domain similarity and specificity of creative self-regulation. Both studies supported a seven-factor model of creative self-regulation, with different self-regulatory behaviors engaged in the phases of forethought (obstacle expectations, uncertainty acceptance), performance (adjusting approach, managing and reframing ambiguous goals, and emotion regulation), and self-reflection (improving approach and readiness for sharing). Across both studies, creative self-regulation was systematically correlated with creative self-concept and less systematically with personality. Additionally, in Study 2, creative self-regulation explained a unique portion of the variance in creative activity, achievement, and declared future engagement when personality and creative self-beliefs were controlled. A substantial similarity of self-regulation across different domains was observed in terms of the structure, difficulty, and residual variances (measurement invariance), yet some self-regulatory behaviors and strategies were more pronounced in certain domains than others. We discuss the consequences of these findings along with future research directions. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
