A espontaneidade e a criatividade são conceitos de grande relevância para a literatura em
psicologia no geral e para a teoria psicodramática em particular, sendo a partir desta última
expectável que elas se correlacionem de forma positiva e significativa. O objetivo deste estudo
é compreender as correlações entre a espontaneidade, a criatividade, a impulsividade e o flow,
realizando também comparações entre estas, o género e o local de recolha das respostas. Para
tal foram recolhidos dados de 439 adultos, entre os 18 e os 64 anos de idade, no ISPA - Instituto
Universitário de Ciências Psicológicas, Sociais e da Vida (ISPA-IU), também na Faculdade de
Motricidade Humana (FMH) e através de um formulário online. A espontaneidade foi medida
pelo Revised Spontaneity Assessment Inventory (SAI-R); a criatividade foi mensurada pela
Escala de Personalidade Criativa – Forma Reduzida (EPC- Forma Reduzida); a impulsividade
foi avaliada pela subescala N5, do Inventário da Personalidade NEO Revisto (NEO-PI-R); para
medir o flow foi aplicada a Short Dispositional Flow Scale-2 (S DSF-2). A espontaneidade, a
criatividade e o flow tiveram uma correlação positiva significativa. Contudo, a impulsividade
não se correlacionou significativamente com nenhuma das variáveis. Estes resultados têm
implicações em termos teóricos e práticos para o modelo do Psicodrama.
Spontaneity and creativity are essential concepts, both for the general psychology literature and for the psychodramatic theory which allows us to expect a positive significant correlation between them. The goal of this study is to understand the correlations between spontaneity, creativity, impulsivity and flow. Comparisons will also be drawn between these variables, gender, and means of data collection. For that purpose, the data of 439 adults, between 18 and 64 years of age, was collected from ISPA-IU, FMH and in an online form. Spontaneity was measured by the Revised Spontaneity Assessment Inventory (SAI-R); creativity was accessed by the Creative Personality Scale – Short Form (EPC- Short Form); impulsivity was evaluated by the N5 subscale, of the NEO Personality Inventory Revised (NEO-PI-R); to measure flow the Short Dispositional Flow Scale-2 (S DSF-2) was applied. Spontaneity, creativity and flow had a significant positive correlation. However, impulsivity didn’t correlate significantly with any of the other variables. These results have implications in terms of theory and practice for the psychodrama model.
