Abstract
Creativity, as measured by standard tests, can be increased by training in creative problem solving. To determine whether training with the programmed materials developed by the funior author is effective, high school students were given a 1-semester course with (a) the program alone (2 schools) or (b) the program taught by an instructor (2 schools). (c) Control students in 2 other schools were given no training. (d) Additional control groups within the 4 experimental schools were also included. A battery of creativity tests was given to all Ss at the beginning and end of the semester. In general, the instructor-taught group appeared to improve more on the tests than the program-alone group, and both improved more than the control groups.
