The question of whether creativity IS cIormin-general or cbrmin-spxific is one of the
controversies in the field of the nature of creativity. mentiy, nurrerous research rEPJrts have shown
that skills, traits and knowledge uneerlying creative p:rtorm.u1ce nuy be task or domrin spxific.
According to Plucker (1998), however, most of these researches and theories suffer from
conceptual, methodological, or logical oversights. On the basis of this argument, it needs to
confirm the nature of creativity whether creativity is domain-general or domain-specific. The
purpose of the present study is to expand the validity of the structural model of creative
behavior in the domain of art.
233 art high school students self-reported their subject records related with art. Also they
completed six types of tests. As a result, the m::Jdel showed a good fit to the present data in the
creative groups of art, GF1 = .g). TIlls study provides empirical evidence of the domain generality
of creativity in ti1e point of cognitive developIrent, confluent perspectives, and Irethodology.
According to results, creativity programs that seek to enhance students\'creative abilities
should be designed and administered in the point of view incorporating intrapersonal
valuables with interpersonal valuables. Also, creativity programs should diagnose the
readiness of intrapersonal, intrapersonal valuables for creativity and assist the lack of
conditions of creativity in the general level before discriminating students\' creative domain in
which their abilities are more creative.
