Abstract(s)
O presente estudo tem como objectivo investigar as representações sociais de criatividade em dois grupos de duas áreas de conhecimento distintas (Grupo de Ciências Exactas e Grupo de Artes) incidindo nas concepções dos participantes acerca de criatividade, e de como através da sua experiencia diferente, definem criatividade, descrevem a pessoa criativa, associam a criatividade ou não a determinadas áreas, como percepcionam e explicam a origem da criatividade e quais as personalidades de referência que apontam como exemplares de pessoa criativa.
Para o efeito procedeu-se a um estudo qualitativo em que se realizaram entrevistas semi-directivas, aos 20 participantes, 10 do Grupo de Ciências Exactas e 10 do Grupo de Artes. Os dados foram tratados através da metodologia denominada por análise de conteúdo categorial.
Os principais resultados revelam que existe uma tendência para a associação da criatividade à área de artes, que a origem da criatividade é maioritariamente concebida como algo inato, embora passível de desenvolvimento, tendo sido verificadas diferenças, consoante a área de proveniência dos participantes (Ciências Exactas e Artes), em algumas das concepções de criatividade apresentadas, sobretudo ao nível da definição de criatividade, e da descrição da pessoa criativa, revelando que embora existam representações comuns de criatividade e de pessoa criativa, verificam-se variações consoante a área de proveniência dos participantes, devido á especificidade inerente a cada domínio, e consequentes atributos e características mais valorizados nesse domínio.
Os resultados são discutidos através dos conteúdos das respostas às diferentes consignes da entrevista.
