Research on Correlation of Self-Confidence and Creativity

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of this study is to first define self-confidence (self-efficacy) and evaluate importance of creativity of designers, then investigate correlation between the two values. While creativity is a crucial element of design process, for novelty is an essential element of a great design, many believe that self-confidence is one of the major sources of creativity. An experiment consisted of questionnaires and creativity tests have suggested that there is no clear relationship between the two values. Nonetheless, the two values are still driving forces of one’s motivation, which could ultimately lead to a designer’s success
