Abstract

The Test for Creative Thinking - Drawing Production (TCT-DP) is a creativity test, suitable for most age and ability groups. It was developed by Jellen and Urban (1986) and has been used mainly in Europe. This study explores the possibility of implementing TCT-DP amongst kindergarten children in Korea. Results from a TCT-DP field study on 1366 Korean pre-school children are comparable to those found in previously reported German studies of TCT-DP. The article presents steps taken to adapt TCT-DP to a different culture. These steps include: test translation, test implementation, scoring, selection and training of test agents and graders, norm construction, and score interpretation. The findings provide useful information for practitioners wishing to adapt foreign psychological tests such as TCTDP to different cultures, especially in relation to the assessment of pre-school children.
