Dear Shashank

There are some instruments for measuring creativity :


Provide data for evaluation of individuals or groups , guiding teachers in planning and implementing
appropriate instruction ;
Help remove the creativity of the domain of the mysterious and inaccessible ;
identify creative potential , among others .
There are different methods for measuring creativity among the best known ;
The tests of divergent thinking , as developed by Guilford ,
The Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking , which have been adapted and validated for the Brazilian
culture Wechsler
The Test of Creative Thinking - Divergent Production of Urban and Jellen .
Another form of testing that is developed with the aim of assessing psychological traits , personality ,
motivational , biographies , interests and styles of creativity , such as : Group Inventory for Finding
Creative Talent (GIFT ) , Group Inventory for Finding Interests ( GIFFI I and II ) , Preeschool Interest
Description ( PRIDE )
. Besides these are described in the literature many cheklists of inventories and personality attributes
, the subjective judgment by a group of experts from the creativity of individuals and the use of
judges using predetermined criteria .
I suggest reading the book:
