Relationship between the Variables Self-Concept and Creativity in a Sample of Childhood-Education Students

In this work we attempt to prove through experimentation that a relationship exists between affective factors and creative ability. We therefore believe that the expression of the creative capacity will have a positive bearing on the manifestation of self-concept. To this end, we designed a psyc...

Creatividad autoconcepto educación infantil. In this work we attempt to prove through experimentation that a relationship exists between affective factors and creative ability. We therefore believe that the expression of the creative capacity will have a positive bearing on the manifestation of self-concept. To this end, we designed a psychoeducational program based on children’s stories, aimed at increasing creative ability in a sample of early childhood education students, while simultaneously obtaining improved expression of their self-concept. To do this, we used a quasi-experimental design of nonequivalent control groups with double pretest. As evaluation instruments we used the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking (TTCT), and Villa and Azumendi’s PCSC test (Perception of Child Self Concept). The results of the study showed significant increases in the experimental group, both in their levels of verbal creativity (fluency, flexibility and originality), and in their self-concept, as compared with the control groups. En este trabajo pretendemos comprobar de forma experimental la relación existente entre los factores afectivos y la capacidad creativa. De tal modo que pensamos que la expresión de la capacidad creativa redundará de forma positiva en la manifestación del autoconcepto. Con este fin, se diseñó un programa psicoeducativo, basado en cuentos infantiles, dirigido a incrementar la capacidad creativa en una muestra de educación infantil, con el objetivo de obtener, igualmente, una mejora en la expresión de su autoconcepto. Para ello, se utilizó un diseño cuasiexperimental de grupos de control no equivalentes con doble pretest. Como instrumentos de evaluación se utilizaron la Batería Verbal del Test de Pensamiento Creativo de Torrance y el PAI (Percepción del Autoconcepto Infantil) de Villa y Azumendi. Los resultados del estudio arrojaron incrementos significativos en el grupo experimental, tanto en sus niveles de creatividad verbal (fluidez, flexibilidad y originalidad), como en los de autoconcepto, en relación con los grupos control.
