Особенности креативности в социальном взаимодействии у осужденных, совершивших корыстные и агрессивно-насильственные преступления

Abstract

The article presents the results of an empirical study of the features of creativity in social interaction on a sample of male convicts serving sentences in a penal colony (N = 18, convicted of fraud and selfish violence, and N = 20 convicted of aggressively violent crimes). The relationship between the fluency indicators in situations of positive and negative connotations (revenge for damage and lies in romantic relationships) with personal values (the Sh.Shwartz questionnaire), aggression (the Bassa-Perry questionnaire), temperament characteristics (K.Cluninger's questionnaire), behavior (Questionnaire of M.Ranko et al.). Corporations of convicts found correlations of fluency in situations with negative connotation with hostility and anger, while in aggressively violent criminals the refusal of revenge is mediated by the highest values of social focus. The results show that creativity in social interaction in situations with negative and positive connotations is not a single construct: it should be differentiated according to the antisocial and prosocial orientation. The limitations of the study are indicated and directions for further research are suggested.
