摘要

本研究的主要目的為發展「幼兒創造力測驗」，並建立四歲至六歲幼兒的分數常模。本研究以12所幼稚園的467名幼兒為樣本。研究中所使用的「幼兒創造力測驗」包含數字聯想及情境問題解決二分測驗；數字聯想的評分指標為新奇性，情境評量的評分指標為有用性。
研究發現，「幼兒創造力測驗」具有良好的再測信度與評分者信度。本研究以
年齡、氣質、情緒調節、創作性戲劇教學以及多元智慧的統整層分數作為效標，發現這些變項與「幼兒創造力測驗」的總分均有顯著相關，顯示「幼兒創造力測驗」具有良好的效標關聯效度。此外，男女幼兒在創造力總分的表現上均沒有差異；但年齡愈大的幼兒，其創造力的表現愈好。總之，本研究所發展的「幼兒創造力測驗」符合目前創造力評量的共識與趨勢，且能突破幼兒創造力測驗的傳統，同時測量「新奇性」與「有用性」，是一份具有良好信度與效度的幼兒創造力測驗。

The purposes of this study were to develop The Preschoolers' Creativity Test as well as to establish its scoring norm for 4-to 6-year-old children. Four hundred and sixty-seven children sampled from 12 kindergartens participated in this study. The main instrument employed was The Preschoolers' Creativity Test; it included 2 subtests: Number Association and Situation-based Problem Solving. The abilities evaluated by these two subtests were novelty and usefulness.
The findings in this study suggest that The Preschoolers' Creativity Test has good test-retest reliability and inter-rater reliability. Moreover, we found that there were significant correlations between age, temperament, emotion regulation, creative drama instruction, the integrated level of multiple intelligences and creativity, suggesting that The Preschoolers' Creativity Test has good criterion-related validity. We also found that the girls and the boys did not perform differently in creativity; however, their performance in creativity improved as their ages increased. To sum up, the creativity test developed in this study matches the consensus and the trend of the evaluation of creativity; it goes beyond the traditional conception of evaluating young children's creativity by including the evaluation of novelty and usefulness. Therefore, The Preschoolers' Creativity Test is a preschoolers' creativity test with decent reliability and validity.
