Abstract
Objectives The purpose of this study was to examine the indirect effects of creative self-efficacy on creative ach-ievement through emotion regulation strategies in dance majors, and to examine whether the effectiveness of emotion regulation strategies in mediating the relationship between creative self-efficacy and creative achieve-ment varies by dance experience level. Methods A total of 434 dance majors (46 males, 388 females, mean dance experience level: 7.35±3.79 years) re-sponded to questionnaires measuring creative self-efficacy, emotion regulation strategies, and creative achieve-ment, and the data were processed through mediation analysis and controlled mediation analysis using PROCESS version 4.0 for SPSS (Hayes, 2018). Results Creative self-efficacy positively influenced creative achievement directly as well as through emotion reg-ulation strategies. Furthermore, the effect of emotion regulation strategies on mediating the positive relationship between creative self-efficacy and creative achievement was stronger when the level of creative self-efficacy was high but the level of dance experience was low. We also found that the emotion regulation strategies that me-diate the positive relationship between creative self-efficacy and creative achievement are stronger when crea-tive self-efficacy is high but dance experience is low, and that the effect of creative self-efficacy on creative ach-ievement is stronger when college students with low creative self-efficacy have high dance experience. Conclusions The results suggest that it is important for college students majoring in dance to develop the ability to effectively manage their emotional experiences in order to be confident in their ability to effectively generate and perform creative ideas in order to solve problems and achieve goals during creative activities.
